I quite truly love your blog! I was just wondering if a few things that slightly bothered me maybe did the same for you? (ie: Her dress is actually yellow, Humpty Dumpty and "Jabberwocky" were actually in "Through the Looking Glass and such) I don't suspect a lot of people do, yet it seems to aggrieve me quite a bit...
Thank you lovely anon. I’ve never been particularly concerned with the way she often is shown wearing a blue dress or that people tend to combine the two separate tales. To me, the color isn’t as important, and it’s all Wonderland to her. I can certainly understand why things like that would bother you, but I just see it as a mash-up (for lack of better terminology) of various aspects of the same world.
But I do love Hallmark’s Alice in Wonderland because it seems to stick more truly to the book (with a few adjustments, of course) and it just makes me smile.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful question.
