This time is specially arranged for children and families.
Alice from Wonderland
Before “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” originally published in 1865, most children’s books were boring, humorless, and intended to punish or instruct. This magical adventure story written by a mathematician who wrote under the pen name of Lewis Carroll made it fun to read. Carroll was in life Charles Dodgson, a shy, quiet professor who loved puzzles and spoke with a stammer.
Besides enjoying “Alice from Wonderland” (J CAR or CL CAR), consider also “Alice Adventure: Lewis Carroll in Popular Culture (823.8 BRO).
