Does Alice have a sister in Alice in Wonderland?

Answer 1

Yes, Alice's sister is reading the book at the beginning, and is there when Alice wakes up at the end of the book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and Disney's 1951 animated film.

Her name is not given, but Alice Liddell, the real little girl who inspired the the story, had two sisters, Edith and Lorina.

Answer 2

The sister's name is not given in the story. But the real Alice, Alice Liddell, about whom Lewis Carroll told the story, had two sisters, Edith and Lorina. As Lorina was older than Alice, it is more likely that the sister in the story referred to her.

Answer 3

In his book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll doesn't give much information about the character of Alice's sister. He doesn't even tell us her name.

We do know, however, that the book was inspired by a little girl called Alice Liddell who had two sisters, named Edith and Lorina.

Carroll doesn't specify that Alice in the book is actually Alice Liddell, and similarly, it is never explicit that the sister was either of the other Liddell girls.

However, if we assume that Alice is Alice Liddell, then the sister is most likely to be Lorina, as she is Alice's older sister, and the sister in the book is also older.
