My Wonderland

I know that if I were in Alice’s situation I would have handled things much differently. First of all, I would have never taken a drink from the “drink me bottle”  because, even though it does not say poison I would no be so naive to believe that just because something does not say poison that [...]

Mad as a Hatter

A personal favorite character of mine is the Mad Hatter. As in my entry about the caterpillar, I do not want to express opinion about the Mad Hatter, I only wish to explain some of the ways he could be viewed. The most common interpritation of him is that he is used to teach Alice [...]

Who are You?

The caterpillar is one of the strangest characters in Wonderland and one of the most attracted characters as well. I do not wish to express my opinion through this , I only wish to show two of the many ways that you can look at this character. Most people’s first opinion of the caterpillar is [...]

I Am Alice

Alice is on of the least complex characters in the story, and that is most defiantly an interesting move on the part of the author. Perhaps, he wanted us to see Alice for only who she is or, maybe he wanted to make her harder to decode than the other characters from Wonderland. Alice is [...]

More than a Little White Rabbit (version 2)

After reading Alice I wanted to compare my original thoughts of the white rabbit to what I thought about him after the story was over. From the very beginning I saw that there was more than one way to interpret the white rabbit, however, I did not see just how many there were. As far [...]

Alice’s Playlist

The following is a potential soundtrack for a film/stage production of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: 1. Sitting in the Park -  Billy Stewart http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/billy_stewart/sitting_in_the_park.html This song describes the beginning of Alice very well. It is very light, very day dreamy and it’s just about sitting in the park waiting for something to happen, just like [...]

Alice’s Directors Notes (pt. 1)

Imagine: A high school has decided to take on Alice in Wonderland as their spring show. These are a few notes that the director might give to the actress playing Alice. Scene: On the bank/ Down the Rabbit hole “Emotion notes”: At the start she is very board and a bit drowsy but, when she [...]

Alice’s Directors Notes (pt.2)

Scene: Waking Up/ Going Home “Emotion Notes”: For this scene you must really tap in to the “there is no place like home” feeling. Think about when you were little and came home from your first time at sleep away camp and think how happy you were to be home. When she first wakes up [...]

After Alice

After finishing the story, there are many things about this story that really caught my attention. There are the morals of the story, the way the story is written/told, and the characters in the story. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland can be a controversial story if decoded correctly. I think this was the author’s intention, he [...]

No Bounds

At first we see Wonderland as a magical dream land were every thing is perfect, when in reality it is a chaotic mad house. I think it is interesting that we as readers can not see the bad in something like Wonderland because, we like Alice are so fascinated by strange things that we see [...]
