    Carroll’s created characters for ‘Alice in the Wonderland’ that also include certain male representations, which were very commonly seen in the Victorian society. These include March Hares and Mad Hatters who could be viewed as the way of representing male hostility and attitude towards women of that time. Being a man, Carroll had to manage his anger because of the regressive desires held by him (Benson 3). One of the strongest characters in the story was the grinning Cheshire Cat. The cat was shown

    The film Alice in Wonderland (1951)- Disney's animated adaptation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is the most well known. The story is mainly for children. Disney combined scenes from both ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking Glass’ for the storyline, and characters like the Griffin, the Mock Turtle, the Duchess, the Jabberwock and Humpty Dumpty, were left out. I believe he did this because he thought that those characters were either too evil to be in a children’s movie

    Alice in Wonderland Alice in Wonderland by Charles L Dodgeson (Lewis Carrol) is a classic masterpiece and example of great literature. Many people know of this book as merely a child’s tale or a Disney movie. As both were adopted from the book, many of the ideas were not. I have my own feelings and opinions of this book. Remarkable use of words and an originally creative theme and plot structure are both used in this book. The author of this novel used many hidden meanings, symbolism, and ambiguous

    I have decided to choose the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol. As a graded version, I've had the book from Oxford University Press, stage 2 which is 700 words. The CD version was also available in the graded book and was retold by Jennifer Bassett. The first difference between the two versions was the number of chapters, the original had 12 chapters whereas the graded one only 6. After the very first chapter of the graded version, I did not find anything important missing. The

    Is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland as absurd and nonsensical as it seems to be—without any traces of morals hiding underneath the bizarre shaped tea cups and crooked smiles? Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, written by an English author in 1865 under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll, contains obscurities that leave people uncertain due to the nonsense. The novel holds many obscurities, such as a disappearing Cheshire Cat, a personified rabbit, and a caterpillar who smokes from a hookah. These characters
