Alice through the Age—A Taste of Carroll's Influence in 150 years

"Feeding the Rabbits" or "Alice in Wonderland"-Fredrick Morgan (1956-1927)
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass helped changed the face of children’s literature and have made a permanent shift in the ways in which children’s stories can be told. Not only do the stories themselves survive, but their themes and characters survive in the many adaptations and inspirations of the story that have been utilized in the nearly 150 year since the stories were penned. Since the time of the stories publication,

 33 re-tellings and sequels have been listed as being published.

17 various film adaptation expressly drawing from the Wonderland material have been produced

6 stage adaptations, (including out own) have been listed.


This list does not and cannot include the numerous stories, manga, television episodes, movies, and plays that have been written using this story as material without expressly giving credit to the original story.
