Alice in Wonderland

Chapters 5-6 were by far the best chapters yet. meeting the hookah smoking caterpillar and cherish the cat were cool because they are two very important and two characters that you could remember easily. The caterpillar gives you that vibe that he is a care free creature but in the end he tells alice that the mushroom can make her grow or shrink her due to what she wants. this shows that he has some care for what happens to alice. Cherish the cat is one of the characters that are freaky but you have to love them. His long smile with his meaty teeth and the way he can appear and disappear at any time makes him that much cooler. In my own opinion i think these two characters are going to be a guidance for alice later in the story.

  1. Why do you think that these two characters are so intruiging? Is it because of their personalities and appearances, or is could this fascination possibly be associated with the interrogations they confronted Alice with? I agree with the fact that they can be easily remembered; it would be hard to forget such interesting characters. Do you think that the author merely used chapters 5 and 6 to introduce thee characters, or do they already carry some kind of significance? Finally, what do you think about the philosphical questions the Catapillar presents Alice with? I think there also may be some symbolism involved with the cat's conversation with Alice, making her choose between two different paths. Tell me what you think; what, other than their physical characterization, makes these characters so memorable and cool?
