Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Not didactic at all!. I have never thought of Alice In Wonderland as education, I always thought it was purely for fun!. There were a lot of didactic books written in the Victorian era, but this isn't one of them!. it is pure enjoyment!.

I can't really think of anything else to add to your description of the Cheshire Cat, you seem to have covered it pretty well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

He act as a guild and a helper to Alice throughout the book!.
The book was made to be amusing for a few little girls!. People take fanciful writing to seriously be saying he was doing drugs!. The only reason people think that is because of the song "White Rabbit"!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Supposedly inspired by a carving in a church in Cheshire which Lewis Caroll (or Charles Dodgson, if you prefer) attended in his youth!. If you sat in a certain pew, the angles meant that all you could see of the carving was the mouth!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
