Thus grew the tale of Wonderland:
Thus slowly, one by one,
Its quaint events were hammered out-
And now the tale is done,
And home we steer, a merry crew,
Beneath the setting sun.
Based on “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” by
Lewis Carroll, this CAL will take you down the Rabbit Hole and through the adventure of your lifetime.
I have tried to keep as close to the book as possible but have used a little bit of artistic licence occasionally!
