Alice in Wonderland

The book I chose is Alice in The Wonderland, Alice in The Wonderland is a fiction and a story that was originally written by Charles L. Dodgson or other words, Lewis Carroll, he was born in January 27,1832 in Daresbury,England and later in died January 14,1898,Guildford, England.Lewis Carroll made many books like “The walrus and the carpenter”, “A tangled tale”, “Jabberwocky”, “The hunting of the snark”, etc. but the most amazing book he ever did was “Alice and the Wonderland” and “Through the Looking-Glass”. Some of Lewis Carroll stories almost have some of the story being told in the same book, some authors will try to publish it and try to make their best to make the story just like Lewis Carroll wrote down.

Lewis chose to write this book was because a young girl named Alice, the daughter of Henry George Liddell, Alice Liddell. Alice in The Wonderland became a very old book but many authors will try to remake to story as possible so many people can enjoy the book and remember who the actual author is. Lewis added crazy, unbelievable and amazing tales in Alice in the wonderland, in his book “Alice in The Wonderland” and “Through the Looking-Glass”, he added so many characters like Alice(herself)-always curious about everything, The Mad Hatter- a good friend that Alice will enjoy and trust, The Blue Catapiller- always there for Alice, telling Alice things she should know and what is happening, The Red and White Queens- one side is good and one side is not,etc. Lewis tried to make his story more interesting and fascinating for his readers to read and enjoy.

I liked the book of Alice in The Wonderland because it's amazing how Lewis Carroll did his best to tell an amazing tale to a young girl named Alice. I was inspired how Lewis Carroll wrote his book, many other authors, directors, etc. tried to do excellently everything about the book. One of the directors that tried was Tim Burton, he was inspired by the story, he decided to bring it back to life(realistic). The book will inspire many people by just reading it or by just seeing the movie, Tim burton made both of the story(Alice in The Wonderland and Through the looking-glass) it's amazing how he could be able to do that for a story that was told a long time ago.

Alice in Wonderland

I read Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Caroll, it is a favorite among many. It is also known as a movie produced by Disney. However the movie and the book have distinct differences in some of the scenes. I have not read any other books by Lewis Caroll, but some of his other writings include; Through the Looking Glass and The Complete Stories and Poems

Alice in Wonderland is about a girl who falls through a rabbit hole when she is following a white rabbit and her curiosity gets the best of her. There in this "strange" land she runs into many troubles and unfamiliar faces. From having tea with the Mad Hatter and The Hare to getting stuck in the White Rabbits house and playing croquet with the Queen, this is something Alice will never forget. 

After awhile however she grows quite tired of being in Wonderland and is eager to find a way home. As the book is drawing to a conclusion Alice is found in a position where she may die and never be sent home again. Later on we find out that It was all a dream when Alice actually becomes awake. Many people say there are deeper messages in the story that can be complicated to comprehend. Personally I enjoyed the story and I also liked the writing style of the author. My favorite part about the book is that too read it you really have to use your imagination. I would recommend this book, because if you've seen the movie and then read this there are many differences from the movie. Overall it was a good read.
