Reseña del editor :
This is the handwritten book that Carroll wrote for private use before being urged to develop it later into Alice in Wonderland. It was generously meant to entertain his family and friends. When a sick child in a hospital enjoyed it so much, the mother wrote him saying it had distracted her for a bit from her pain and led eventually to Carroll expanding the story.
