We have to run from all the legs, so that only to stay in place, and to get somewhere, we must run at least twice as fast! Everything has its own morality, you just need to be able to find it. She always give herself good advice, although she do not often follow them.

Alice in a World of Wonderlands  is the most extensive analysis ever done of the translations of one English language novel in so many languages. That novel is  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland , one of the most quoted books in the world. On October 4, 1866 Lewis Carroll wrote his publisher Macmillan stating "Friends here [in Oxford] seem to think that the book is untranslatable." But his friends were wrong, as this book shows with translations in 174 languages. The translations into nine different dialects of Scots language are, we believe, the most of any novel in any language.  The book is also published in Mongolia, Lao, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan. Editions exist in Maori of New Zealand and Pitjantjatjara, an Aboriginal language of Australia. Five Pacific Island languages are represented. There is even one in Brazilian Sign Language. The first translations were German and French in 1869, just a few years after the first English edition in 1865. Translations into v...

 In 1856, Dean (i.e., head of the college) Henry   L i d d e l l  arrived at Christ   C h u r c h , bringing with him his young family, all of whom would figure largely in Dodgson's life over the following years, and would greatly influence his writing career. Dodgson became close friends with Liddell's wife Lorina and their children, particularly the three sisters Lorina, Edith, and Alice Liddell. He was widely assumed for many years to have derived his own "Alice" from  Alice Liddell ; the acrostic  poem at the end of  Through the Looking Glass  spells out her name in full, and there are also many superficial references to her hidden in the text of both books. It has been noted that Dodgson himself repeatedly denied in later life that his "little heroine" was based on any real child, [ ]  and he frequently dedicated his works to girls of his acquaintance, adding their names in acrostic poems at the beginning of the text.

From a young age, Dodgson wrote poetry and short stories, contributing heavily to the family magazine Mischmasc h  and later sending them to various magazines, enjoying moderate success. Between 1854 and 1856, his work appeared in the  national publications  The Comic Times and  The Train , as well as smaller magazines such as the Whitby Gaze t te  and the  Oxford Critic . Most of this output was humorous, sometimes  satirical, but his standards and ambitions were exacting "I do not think I have yet written anything worthy of real publication (in which I do not include the  Whitby Gazette or the  Oxonian Advertiser ), but I do not despair of doing  so some day," he wrote in July 1855 ] Sometime after 1850, he did write  puppet  plays for his siblings' entertainment, of which one has survived:  La Guida di Bragi.

                                  2009: Children's book collector and former American football player  Pat McInally  reportedly sold Alice Liddell's own copy at auction for $115,000. The book has inspired numerous film and television adaptations which have multiplied as the original work is now in the  public domain  in all jurisdictions. The following list is of direct adaptations of  Adventures in Wonderland  (sometimes merging it with  Through the Looking-Glass ), not  other sequels or works otherwise inspired by the works  (such as  Tim Burton 's 2010  film  Alice in Wonderland )
