Did you know:
A lot of the different aspects/trivia that I find out about it. Some interesting stuff I've learned so far:- Alice's dress was originally meant to be gold
- the Mouse is suspected to have been based on Miss Prikett, the real-life governess of the Liddell family
- Alice's incorrect counting when she's trying to remember things (in Chapter 1 or 2 of the original book, forget which) is actually correct in different counting bases, adding bases of three every time
- the corked "Drink Me" bottle is based off of how Victorian medicine bottles were at the time
- the Hatter's appearance was based off of Theophilus Carter, who tried inventing an alarm clock bed that would launch the sleeper out of bed and into cold water to wake them up
- the March Hare/Haigha was inspired by David Haigh, who studied Anglo-Saxon runes (both Hatta and Haigha are described as being Anglo-Saxon in Through the Looking-Glass)
** Honorable mention to the Muppets version, as well, then.

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, celebrated under his pseudonym Lewis Carroll, was born in 1832, the third in a large and talented family of eleven children. His fascination with word games, puzzles and writing was evident from an early age. He was educated at Rugby School and then Christ Church, Oxford, where he was later appointed lecturer in mathematics and subsequently spent the rest of his life. Alongside his academic life he pursued a career both as a writer and an accomplished amateur photographer. His most famous works are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865), its sequel Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There (1871) and The Hunting of the Snark (1876). He died, unmarried, in 1898.

Synopsis: When Alice tumbles down, down, down a rabbit-hole one hot summer's afternoon in pursuit of a White Rabbit she finds herself in Wonderland. And there begin the fantastical adventures that will see her experiencing extraordinary changes in size, swimming in a pool of her own tears and attending the very maddest of tea parties. For Wonderland is no ordinary place and the characters that populate it are quite unlike anybody young Alice has ever met before. In this imaginary land she encounters the savagely violent Queen, the Lachrymose Mock Turtle, the laconic Cheshire Cat and the hookah-smoking Caterpillar, each as surprising and outlandish as the next. Alice's adventures have made her the stuff of legend, the child heroine par excellence, and ensured that Carroll's book is the best loved and most widely read in children's literature.Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, celebrated under his pseudonym Lewis Carroll, was born in 1832, the third in a large and talented family of eleven children.
