Lewis Carroll was an English writer and mathematician who is most famous for creating Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. He was born on 27 January 1832 in a village called Daresbury, in Cheshire, England.

His real name was Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, but he used the name “Lewis Carroll” as his pen name when he wrote books. As a child, he loved reading, writing, and solving puzzles, and this continued into his adult life.

When Carroll grew up, he became a maths teacher at Oxford University, but he never stopped writing stories. One day, he made up a story to entertain a little girl named Alice Liddell, and that story later became Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The book was filled with strange and funny characters, like the White Rabbit and the Mad Hatter, and it became one of the most famous children’s books in the world. After that, Carroll wrote a second book about Alice called Through the Looking-Glass.

Although Carroll is best known for his stories about Alice, he also loved photography and took pictures of his family and friends. Even though he was a quiet and shy person, his books have entertained children and adults for more than 150 years, and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is still read by millions of people today.
