Strands #323

“Curiouser and curiouser!”

🔵🟡🔵🔵

🔵🔵

Hi Strands fans. Today’s theme of “Curiouser and curiouser!” will either instantly reveal the topic, or leave you thoroughly bewildered.

Thankfully, I was in the former camp and instantly clocked that this had to be about the Lewis Caroll children’s novel Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.

That led me to find HATTER in the top left, before connecting the spangram of WONDERLAND from the top to the bottom left-hand corner.

Interestingly, despite “alice” being a word you can connect on the grid, it isn’t an answer, so I delved deeper into my knowledge of the book. I found DORMOUSE in the bottom right-hand corner, followed by CATERPILLAR curling caterpillar-like around the middle of the grid.

That left RABBIT at the top of the board to complete the puzzle.
