Why Alice in Wonderland?  This was a formative story for me both through the text Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (or originally “in Under Ground”) by Lewis Carroll, and the original animation by the Walt Disney Corporation.

  A major part of its draw, to me, is the philosophical underpinnings in a nonsensical story.  The absurd events reflect the very real happenings in day-to-day life, particularly in societal structures and assumptions.  Wonderland is simultaneously incredible, beautiful, and frustrating.
