Why did I love this book?
Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland is the original talking cat novel, though Carroll wasn’t the first to describe a grinning Cheshire Cat. I read the book as a child and loved it, and was especially taken by the Cheshire Cat who appears and disappears at will, and engages Alice in amusing but perplexing conversations. I never forgot the bit where the cat disappears gradually until nothing is left but its grin.
