My dad read to me a lot when I was really little, especially at bedtime. He read me Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, and I've been in love ever since ♥

Didn't you say, Mad Katter, that you absolutely hated the Disney movie?

Disney was normally like that in his movies. He often likes "dumbing down" fairy tales, novels, etc. in his movies, although I have nothing against it, since I happen to be a fan of Walt Disney cartoons.

Well, as a child, I would always watch Disney movies. I assume Alice was one of them I would frequently watch, but I don't remember. Two years ago, I believe, on Easter, Disney Channel played Alice in Wonderland. I recorded it, and by then I fell in love with it, found it so light and fun, and I adored the tea party scene with the music.
Just last year I read the books, though, when looking for information for my photography project, which most of you are aware of.

Nonsense drew me.
I love how Carroll explores very vital themes in a way that is summarily dismissed by many. Yet the story lives on because of its innate truth. Sometimes people learn more from things they don't take seriously.
But, then again, I never take much of anything seriously. So just ignore all that.
