Reading Notes: Alice in Wonderland, Part B

Cheshire Cat by Wikipedia

Alice is quite sassy. There's a lot of dialogue. The characters are having an analogy debate. More caps is being used for emphasis. Everything said is very inquisitive. The choice of words are written in a specific and unnatural style of speaking.

The intro starts off descriptive. It is very easy to imagine the entrance of the garden. Here the characters are named after numbers. Two did this. Five said that. The queen wants to behead people. The only person that has a name is Alice. Everyone is just named after their titles. Rabbit. Queen. Cheshire Cat.

This jury is very irrational. Everyone is so quick to judge. There's a variety of long paragraphs and short ones. Yelling equals all caps. The illustration of the Alice and the cards is cool to see.

Reading Notes: Alice in Wonderland, Part A

Alice and Caterpillar by Dawn Hudson

I chose to read this because I know the general idea of the story already! I’ve read a bit and watched the movies. I feel like it should be mostly the same right?

There are emphasis on words like VERY. Descriptive of feelings and actions. For quotes there’s only ‘ instead of “ ? Alice fell and is confused where she went. She went down, down, down the rabbit hole. I can imagine the movie at this part. Accents are prominent and words are typed like they sound, “Dinah” for dinner. It is very easy to imagine everything happening, and the illustrations are spot on. Everything is odd sizes or a little off. A table only has three legs. The door is tiny. She drank the potion. It was not labeled poison so she felt it was safe.

Fast forward and she ran into a caterpillar. More word EMPHASIZED. There are many quotes to keep the story interesting and cohesive. The caterpillar gave her some advice. He is very inquisitive like a therapist. She was attacked by a pigeon who thought she was a serpent.

There are parts I do not recall in the movies. The Footman seems new to me? But the Cheshire Cat is familiar! His distinctive smile. She ended up taking care of a pig, which grunted a lot. Again, the illustration is amazing.
