I really enjoyed Alice in Wonderland as well as Through the Looking Gl, and I loved the Disney cartoon. It wasn't until later in life that I heard about drug references in the book. I was always told that Carroll (Dodgson if you prefer) wrote the books after telling a story to Alice Liddel, a child he knew. I know he was a really smart guy, so I don't know if I believe all the drug references, especially because he was telling this story to a girl. If you know for a fact that the mushroom reference, the white rabbit and all of those things are academically believed to be drug references, please let me know, just to satisfy my curiosity. Thank you.
