Not only for Disney....

Hi!!!
I suppose that you already know Alice in wonderland and I believe that the film by Disney is the reason, well that movie was influenced by one of my favorite writers, Lewis Carroll, by his work Alice' s adventures in wonderlad.

Well three weeks ago I saw Coraline which has a really well-known influence of L. Carroll not only by Alice' s adventures in wonderlad but also by Through the Looking-Glass this as far as the events of a misunderstood girl who dreams in a fantasy world where nothing seems coherent and with a cat that speaks to mention some things.

I know that Coraline is a novell written by Neil Gaiman in 2002 but I think that the original idea of this horror and fantasy is from Carroll, because his works was published in 1865.

I've read both books. I really liked Alice (and, btw, it's one of the hardest books I've read in English - at least, it was so, like 10 years ago).

Actually, Coraline is one of my favorite books, ever.

And, yep, Coraline has some influence from Lewis Carroll, but you must read more of Neil Gaiman's work. I'm sure you'll love it
