Young Lewis Carroll loved playing
with words. If you know his books, you will not be
surprised to hear that. He loved telling stories to
his sisters and brothers and telling them they should do
six impossible things before breakfast. Or that they
should soothe the jubjub bird. When he was a young
man, he and some friends took a leisurely boat ride. To
entertain the children, he invented a story about a girl
named Alice and her adventures. He later wrote the story
down and the rest is history.
