Here is Alice, from Alice In Wonderland speaking with the blue caterpillar.
In Lewis Carroll's story, the caterpillar does not have a name.
The caterpillar's most memorable quote would have to be: "Who are you?"
To which Alice replies: "I—I hardly know, sir, just at present—at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have changed several times since then."
Is Lewis Carroll alluding to the changes that a caterpillar must go through in its own life?
Will Alice need to go through similar transformations?
In the original story by Carroll, the caterpillar makes an appearance in chapters four and five then disappears from the scene.
How true to form is this?
