| book description |

In this volume, Jan Susina examines the importance of Lewis Carroll and his popular Alice books to the field of childrenâ€™s literature. From a study of Carrollâ€™s juvenilia to contemporary multimedia adaptations of Wonderland, Susina shows how the Alice books fit into the tradition of literary fairy tales and continue to influence childrenâ€™s writers. In addition to examining Carrollâ€™s books for children, these essays also explore his photographs of children, his letters to children, his ill-fated attempt to write for a dual audience of children and adults, and his lasting contributions to publishing. The book addresses the important, but overlooked facet of Carrollâ€™s career as an astute entrepreneur who carefully developed an extensive Alice industry of books and non-book items based on the success of Wonderland, while rigorously defending his reputation as the originator of his distinctive style of childrenâ€™s stories.
