Describes how Alice was conjured up one 'golden afternoon' in 1862 to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. His dream worlds of Wonderland and back-to-front Looking Glass kingdom depict order turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig, time is abandoned at a disorderly tea-party and a chaotic game of chess makes a seven-year-old girl a Queen.

Lewis Carroll, born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was an English writer, mathematician, and photographer best known for his children's novels "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass." His literary style is characterized by whimsical wordplay, clever puns, and nonsensical logic. Carroll's contributions to literature include popularizing the literary genre of literary nonsense and creating iconic characters such as the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Hatter. His work continues to inspire generations of readers and remains a timeless classic in the realm of children's literature.
