XDD! This was one of the books I had to read for Children's Literature and I'm about to watch the Tim Burton movie with my Mom since she bought it for me, but hasn't seen it!

I did the meme on my journal as well ;D

Oh really? haha I got confused multiple times throughout the book. It's so psychedelic. I wonder what Carroll was taking when he was writing this XD

Oh I LOVED the movie, then again I'm a Burton junkie so anything he creates is magic to me <33 lol Depp's dance in the end....tell me your thoughts XD

XD; He did have many psychological issues plus he wanted to write a different type of children's book. He's the one who transformed what Children's Literature used to be before his time and what we call the "Classics" today, but the health reasons might contribute to 90% of the reason why the book is trippy, LOL!

I didn't know that! And my English teacher is all about reading the context of the author before reading LOL he failed to tell my class this. It was an enjoyable read. I think Through the Looking-Glass is weirder than Alice in Wonderland. Have you read Through the Looking-Glass?

Did you enjoy the Burton adaption?
