ALICE

Alice came upon a little three legged –table made of solid glass. There was nothing on it but a

tiny golden key. On looking around a second time, she saw a low curtain and behind it was a

little door about fifteen inches high. She tried the little golden key in the lock, and to her great

delight it fitted.

Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole.

She knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw. But she

was too large to get in.

She went back to the table. This time she found a little bottle with the words “DRINK ME”

beautifully printed on it in large letters. Alice ventured to taste it, and, finding it very nice (it

had a sort of mixed flavor of cherry-tart, custard, pineapple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot

buttered toast), she soon finished it off.

“What a curious feeling!” said Alice. „I must be shutting up like a telescope!‟ And so it was

indeed! She was now only ten inches high and the right size for going through the little door.
