Abstract
Children’s literature is a late arrival in the history of literature. It has sprouted from the west particularly in England in the eighteenth century. The growth of children’s literature in traditional societies is reflected in two aspects. First, it exploited the old folklores and in another aspect it created some new literatures such as comics, picture books and fiction. It also stimulates the advancement of science and technology through story telling. Here the text Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll can be considered as one of the fantasy novels which take us to the world of quest and mystery. The portrayal of the protagonist Alice by Lewis Carroll seems powerful and it breaks the stereotype of the Victorian image of the female gender. Thus, Alice’s adventures suggest the intellectual curiosity and competency in discovering the meaning of her life. The aim of the paper is to bring out the experience of Alice in the alternative world from the text Alice in wonderland.
