Day 16: Favourite Female Character

At the risk of choosing a very predictable answer, my favourite female character would just have to be Alice, from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Based on a real girl (Alice Pleasance Liddell), Alice is one of those unforgettable characters that one reads about as a child, but goes back to continuously, as an adult - simply because she's so wondrously layered. Her handling of situations, her child-like appeal, and her freshness all make her unique - she's one little girl I'd love to have met in real-life!
