Abstract	Lewis Carrolls world of nonsense, Wonderland, is undoubtedly filled with otherworldly creatures, symbols, and scenarios, all experienced by its main character Alice. From falling down the rabbit-hole to playing an unusual version of croquet with the Queen, Alice is faced with a series of challenges that require her to let go of her common sense and the known facts about the outside world while accepting the lawless, illogical, and mad reality as her new normal. While being aware of the existence of the outside world, Alice is wandering the newly discovered world on her own. Much to her frustrations, Wonderlands inhabitants that she meets prove to be more of a nuisance and a problem than helpful. Most of the challenges prove to be overwhelming for a child and cause her to push herself harder in order to survive. It is everything but a coincidence that these characters and extraordinary events are the cause of Alices self-doubt and required change. Seemingly meaningless conversations and situations turn out to be the needed ingredient for her personal growth and can be interpreted as victory against her inner demons and fears that she has been battling with in reality, but was too afraid to face in the lucid state.
