Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is an 1865 novel written by English author Lewis Carroll. It tells of a young girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a subterranean fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures.
He would begin writing the manuscript of the story subsequent day, although that earliest version is lost to history. the women and Dodgson took another boat trip a month later when he elaborated the plot to the story of Alice, and in November he began performing on the manuscript in earnest.
To add the finishing touches he would research explanation for the animals presented within the book, then had the book examined by other children—particularly those of George MacDonald. Though Dodgson did add his own illustrations, he would approach John Tenniel for instance the book for publication, telling him that the story had been well liked by children.
On 26 November 1864, Dodgson gave Alice the handwritten manuscript of Alice's Adventures Under Ground, with illustrations by Dodgson himself, dedicating it as "A Christmas present to an expensive Child in Memory of a Summer's Day".Some, including Martin Gardner, speculate that there was an earlier version that was destroyed later by Dodgson when he wrote a more elaborate copy by hand.
Before Alice received her copy, Dodgson was already preparing it for publication and expanding the 15,500-word original to 27,500 words, most notably adding the episodes about the Cheshire cat and therefore the Mad party .
