Alice in Wonderland

Book Information Genre: Children First appearance: "Moe Baby Blues"

Alice in Wonderland is a British children's novel, written by Lewis Carroll in 1865, then followed by the sequel "Alice Through The Looking-Glass" (1871). It has been adapted into plays, films and TV series many times and therefore referenced often on "The Simpsons" too.
