"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (first published on July 4, 1865) - originally published as "Alice's Adventures Under Ground". The story centers on the seven-year-old Alice, who falls asleep in a meadow, and dreams that she plunges down a rabbit hole. She finds herself first too large and then too small. She meets such strange characters as Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, and the King and Queen of Hearts, and experiences wondrous, often bizarre adventures, trying to reason in numerous discussions that do not follow the daylight logic. Finally, she loses her temper, bringing down this dream world and wakes up.

Lewis Carroll (1832-1898), (pseudonym of English writer and mathematician, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) is best known for his enduring classics "Alice in Wonderland" (1865) and "Through the Looking Glass" (1875).

Sir John Tenniel (1820-1914) was an English illustrator. He drew many topical cartoons and caricatures for 'Punch' in the late 19th century, but is best remembered today for his illustrations for Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass"
