A Mad Tea Party
From “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Caroll.

One of my first and favourite childhood story books was Alice in Wonderland, which I still have. The Mad Hatter would have to be one of my favourite characters!

“Take some more tea” the March Hare said to Alice, earnestly."
“I’ve had nothing yet,” Alice replied in an offended tone:
“so I can’t take more.”
“You mean you can’t less,” said the Hatter:
“It’s very easy to take more than nothing.”

Storybook Garden, Hunter Valley Gardens, New South Wales, Australia.

The Mad Hatter has been brought back to life by this wonderful sculpture.
