Best Answer

Tweedledum and Tweedledee was an established nursery rhyme before its heroes appeared in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass. When she meets them, Alice recalls the rhyme:

`Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle;
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.

Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.

It is included in the Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes and it is probable that it has a been featured in Mother Goose or other books of rhymes for children.

Does Alice from Wonderland have a dad?

Alice's parents are never mentioned in either of Lewis Carroll's Alice books. We know that she has a sister and a brother, but other than that, we are left in the dark as to her relationship with her family. However, she is never described as an orphan, and as Alice Liddell, the little girl on whom Alice was originally based, has both parents, we can probably assume that Alice's parents are at home, in the real world.


Is Alice from Alice in Wonderland royalty?

No. Alice is not royalty. At least, there is no mention in either of the books to suggest that she is, so it is reasonable to assume that she isn't. In Chapter 9 of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice decides that "When I'm a Duchess...I won't have any pepper in my kitchen at all." (But she doesn't say it in a very hopeful tone) From this it can be inferred that her current rank is certainly below that of Duchess and that she is probably a commoner.

Does Alice Cullen hate maria?

In the books Alice doesn't mention Maria. I presume that she doesn't like her even thought they've never formally been introduced. Jasper dislikes Maria so Alice probably thinks the same as him.
