Wonderland Revisited and the Games Alice Played There is a novel by Keith Sheppard, written about 1993 and published in 2009 by Evertype of Westport, County Mayo.
In the book, Alice wakes to find that her bed to find it transformed into a boat drifting downstream. She disembarks to meet a number of the inhabitants of Wonderland, some familiar from Carroll's books, and some new: she meets the Red Queen, the Jack of Diamonds, the Mah-jong Dragons, the Red King, and the Red King's Gamekeeper, among others.
Her adventures involve playing a variety of games with the denizens of Wonderland. The book takes advantage of a good deal of wordplay, nonsense verse, and is faithful to the style of Carroll's originals.
