"Alice in the Wonderland" is one of my all time favourite bedtime stories. The marvelous adventures of Alice kept me fascinated long after I passed the age for children stories. Do you know that "Alice" is a real character?
Charles Dodgson's "Alice in the Wonderland" was inspired by Alice Liddell, who lived in Oxford. The tale, highlighting several spots in Oxford itself, was told to the little girls (Alice and her siblings) while they were rowing a boat along River Thames. Who knew the story soon became a tale that lived forever?
