These are photographs of the grown up Alice Liddell, Alice with her sisters, Edith and Lorina, and Alice as a child. She is said to have been the inspiration for the books.
The book, the title page, the author, the illustrator, my favorite quote from the book, and my favorite Alice illustrated by Arthur Rackham.
The Alice books were a great inspiration to me as a child. I love to read and I think I have read them at least twenty times each. When I got older it was even more meaningful when I found out there had been a real living and breathing Alice. Today I thought I would share a couple of those images with you. Hoping to inspire you.
