The March Hare uses a mallet to crush the " mad watch," bringing tears to the Rabbit. Then, the watch goes haywire and spits out springs and wheels all over the place as it moves across the table. Thinking that it's done the trick, the Mad Hatter closes the watch and trimmed off the excess jam. He adds ingredients to the mixture: the very best butter, tea, two spoons of sugar, jam, mustard (which is rejected, since it's too silly, even for him), and lemon. As a result, he takes out many wheels and springs with a fork in his attempt to fix it.

Alice tries to converse with him, but the Mad Hatter grabs a hold of the Rabbit's watch and finds out why he's so late: the watch is "two days slow." The Mad Hatter dips the watch in tea and opens up to discover - with a salt container as a lens - the problem: the watch is full of wheels. Soon the party is once again interrupted by the White Rabbit. As Alice tries to explain her reasons for visiting, the Mad Hatter and March Hare keep changing the subject. At first, they are upset because Alice came without an invitation, but become pleased when Alice compliments their singing and they welcome her to join. They are singing " The Unbirthday Song" but are interrupted when Alice starts to applaud. Alice visits as the Mad Hatter is in the middle of a very odd tea party with the March Hare and the Dormouse. The Mad Hatter is seen when Alice wonders off in the forest and the Cheshire Cat tells her to visit them for directions back home. This could be seen when the Mad Hatter made an attempt to "fix" the White Rabbit's watch. This is likely due to their overbearing antics and, as well as the fact that they're both, especially the Mad Hatter, troublemakers, albeit innocently so. He tends to use terms such as "my dear" when referring to Alice, is shown to be courteous, and is overall the warmer side of the duo that is himself and the March Hare, who is far more rambunctious and outspoken.Īccording to Hatter, he and the March Hare never get compliments on their singing, and they're usually the only attendants at the frequent unbirthday parties, apparently making the duo outcasts in the realm of Wonderland. The name of one of the three little sisters in the Treacle Well refers to Alice: ‘Lacie’ is a transformation of the letters from the word ‘Alice’.While the Hatter is loud, eccentric, and insane like the rest of Wonderland's residents, he is also rather charming and can be mild-mannered from time to time, particularly when dealing with visitors such as Alice. He recommended her as a model, but whether Tenniel accepted this advice remains a matter of dispute Carroll sent Tenniel a photograph of Mary Hilton Badcock, another child-friend, who was the daughter of the Dean of Ripon. The illustrations of Alice by John Tenniel are not based on Alice Liddell. The character of Alice is based on a real girl, called Alice Liddell, who was one of the author’s child-friends. “Loving, first, loving and gentle: loving as a dog (forgive the prosaic simile, but I know no earthy love so pure and perfect), and gentle as a fawn then courteous – courteous to all, high or low, grand or grotesque, King or Caterpillar, even as though she were herself a King’s daughter, and her clothing of wrought gold: then trustful, ready to accept the wildest impossibilities with all that utter trust that only dreamers know and lastly, curious – wildly curious, and with the eager enjoyment of Life that comes only in the happy hours of childhood, when all is new and fair, and when Sin and Sorrow are but names – empty words signifying nothing!” In the article ‘ Alice on Stage’, Carroll gives the following description of her: In Through the Looking-Glass, she is 6 months older and more sure of her identity. She is easily put off by abruptness and rudeness of others. Alice is polite, well raised and interested in others, although she sometimes makes the wrong remarks and upsets the creatures in Wonderland. She is a seven-year-old English girl (in ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ she is exactly seven years old, in ‘Through the Looking-Glass’ she is seven and a half) with lots of imagination and is fond of showing off her knowledge. Alice is the main character of the story “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and the sequel “Through the Looking-Glass and what Alice found there”.
