A Speech Pathologist’s Perspective: Joseph Agius, a Speech Language Pathologist, pointed out that Lewis Carroll stuttered and so he surrounded himself with children who made him felel easy. He especially enjoyed the company of a particular child named Alice. If Lewis Carrol had not stuttered and Lewis Carroll had not met Alice Liddell, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland may never have been written.
