Our story begins with Alice sitting on the bank “tired of having nothing to do”. Suddenly a White Rabbit runs past exclaiming “I’m late! I’m late!”. Burning with curiosity Alice follows him, ending up in a long hallway with doors all around it.

Trying in vain to discover a way out she finds a golden key to a tiny door but she is too large to get through. Peering through the keyhole she sees a beautiful garden and longs to be there. After many adventures, getting bigger, bigger, bigger and shrinking, shrinking, shrinking, Alice slips into a pool of tears where she meets a duck, a dodo, and a mouse and they swim ashore together. Later she stumbles across a lazy caterpillar who convinces Alice that “ three inches high is the perfect height to be “ Wonderland is a fascinating place.

The crazy behaviour and strange conversations at the Mad Hatter’s tea-party infuriate Alice as she makes her way to the garden. The Queen and the royal procession are announced and Alice is invited to a game of croquet with the Queen. At the trial of the Knave of Hearts (Who stole the tarts?) Alice is called to testify and dares to contradict the Queen. The story comes to a dramatic climax when the pack of cards falls on her. Alice awakes with her head on her sister’s lap and tells of her curious dream in Wonderland.
