CH Five & Six-ish

All right chapter five and six. What I started to notice in the beginning of the chapters was that Alice is such a naive girl, even though she's knowledgeable in some areas. It's as if her mind is processing that the animals she is speaking to aren't animals at all but people for she started to speak of her cat, again, saying that Dinah catches mice and eats birds. Why would anyone talk about your pet catching and eating certain animals with those animals? Which brings me to another topic as to why Alice is so comfortable with all these talking animals. Surely if the fact that she's recognizing the human features of the animals, such as the talking, but is only seeing animals instead of people is true then we can conclude that she truly is dreaming. But the elements of the surrounding area such as the sea and the garden, that is yet to be opened, is continuously changing and makes the reader wonder from where these places are coming from? Was it her imagination or is something influencing her to project these images in her subconscious? From what I can tell is that the garden is somewhere that Alice really wants to go however all these events prevent her from reaching the actual garden. So I was wondering, were these events intentional? Was there something in the garden that she wasn't supposed to see or if she reached the garden would something happen to her? Just as the foreshadowing the mother crab and caterpillar spoke of: keeping your temper. Will her temper cause something that will stop her from escaping this 'Wonderland'? Or will it help her 'wake up'? Again, this allows me to move onto how Alice continues to contradict herself. She always does things that causes her to be unhappy. Like eating the mushroom, for instance. She eats because she wants to be her regular size but this only accomplishes her crying over her mistakes again. Why do something that you aren't sure about? She needs to make sure she looks beyond whatever is in front of her. Sure, taking risks could lead to good things but if it turns out to be bad you need to know how to get out of it. So maybe this 'Wonderland' is teaching her a lesson: to learn from your mistakes. Or something like that. But I must say that the book is different. I hardly remember the Disney movie, I've never watched the Tim Burton version, and I wasn't able to finish the Syfy version. However reading this allows to get in depth with 'Wonderland' and it's many characters. It's a very random yet well played out story so I can't wait to see what pops out next.
