I like the Adventure matchup, here. Once again, completely random.

Shouldn't that be "Through the Looking Glass" or are those two different books?

I was going to give a note here anyways, since they are frequently confused.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is the one with the Mad Hatter's Tea Party, the Cheshire Cat, the 'drink me' bottle and 'eat me' cakes, and the deck of cards (including notably the queen of hearts).

Through the Looking Glass is the one with Jabberwacky, The Walrus and the Carpenter, the chess board, Humpty-Dumpty, and Tweedledee and Tweedledum.

The Disney movie, though I don't remember much of it, was an amalgamation of the two.

Habitual puzzlers of the mathematical bent may want to take note of A Tangled Tale.

"Through the Looking Glass And What Alice Found There" surely?

A second nod to "A Tangled Tale" though - I remember spending a holiday trying to solve some of those puzzles; the discussions of the various answers is equally entertaining.
