Numerous generations of readers read and re-read Lewis Carroll's tale of a little girl who, through a rabbit hole, enters a fairy-tale world full of charming creatures. And it all began on a July afternoon in Oxford in 1862, when Charles Dodgson, a teacher of mathematics, went on a boat trip with the daughters of his college dean. To entertain the girls, he began to tell them the story of Alice, an inquisitive girl who fell into a wonderful country. The children were fascinated, and the youngest, Alice, asked Charles to write down a fairy tale for her, which he did.
