Lewis Carroll's real name was* Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. He was born in Daresbury in Cheshire, England on 27th January 1832. He had* three younger brothers and seven sisters. When he was eleven, the family moved to a small, lonely village in Yorkshire. Charles enjoyed doing magic tricks, putting on puppet shows1 and writing poems and stories to entertain his brothers and sisters. Charles Dodgson went to famous Rugby School from 1846 to 1850. After that, he went to Oxford University's Christ Church college to study Classics and Mathematics. In 1855 he became* a teacher of Mathematics at Christ Church, where he spent* most of the rest of his life. He never married. Charles was a very good photographer, and he loved to photograph children. One girl he often photographed was Alice Liddell, a daughter of the dean of Christ Church. He spent a lot of time with Alice and two of her sisters, Lorina and Edith. His most famous books, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through The Looking Glass (1871), began* as stories he told* the Liddell girls. The Alice books were very popular, and Charles Dodgson wrote* several other stories and various funny 'nonsense' poems.
