Com um total de cerca de 7 000 palavras, esta "vers o" significativamente mais curta do que As Aventuras de Alice no Subsolo (15 500 palavras) e Alice no Pa s das Maravilhas (27 500 palavras). A maior parte da narrativa consiste em interpela es do autor ao jovem ouvinte e em explica es sobre a hist ria atrav s de refer ncias s ilustra es. O efeito dessa estrat gia cativante, sobretudo quando Carroll brinca com aspectos das ilustra es de Tenniel elegantemente coloridas. Curiosamente, nessas obras de arte, o vestido de Alice amarelo e o avental branco, com um la o azul, mas actualmente a maioria dos artistas pinta o vestido de azul e branco. --- "The Nursery 'Alice'" is intended for pre-school children "aged from Nought to Five". Running to just under 7,000 words, it is considerably shorter than both "Alice's Adventures under Ground' (15,500 words) and "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (27,500 words). Much of the narrative consists of the author's addressing the young listener, explaining the story by reference to the illustrations. The effect is rather charming, particularly where Carroll pokes fun at features in Tenniel's illustrations. These were quite skilfully and attractively coloured. Interestingly, Tenniel coloured Alice's dress yellow with a blue trim and white apron, whereas nowadays most artists colour the dress in blue and white only.

Author: Carroll, Lewis
Lewis Carroll was the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, an English writer, mathematician, Anglican deacon, and photographer. Best known for his classics Alice s Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking Glass, and Jabberwocky, Carroll was also an accomplished inventor who created an early version of what is today known as Scrabble. The publication of Alice s Adventures in Wonderland in 1865 brought Carroll a certain level of fame, although he continued to supplement his income through his work as a mathematics tutor at Christ Church, Oxford College. Carroll s whimsical characters and nonsensical verse resonated with Victorian-era readers, and his books continue to be enjoyed by numerous modern societies dedicated to his promoting his works.
