The chapter starts off with a caterpillar smoking a hookah. I'm glad that it did start off with something that would catch my attention because the caterpillar smoking a hookah just made me want to keep reading. Anyways, this novel is very unorganized as I can already tell. A dream turned into a novel basically. Anyways aside from the caterpillar, there was the talking cat. These two are probably the ones who are most influential to Alice because of their sayings.
This novel is built with imagination, I can never picture what is going to happen next in the story because of the fact that is like a dream, you hop onto different scenes once your done with the previous scene. Throughout the novel, I noticed Alice is well interacted with a series of animals. The animals give a sense of personification when they speak like humans. What I also noticed about Alice is that she doesn't really think before she says something. Also she is very childish as if she is the age of 5 but thinking she is knows everything. For example, when she noticed the "Drink Me" sign on the bottle at the rabbits resident, she continues to drink it knowing that it would do something to her body once again.
Thinking upon what Alice does throughout the novel, she makes me think that good will come to her soon from all the mistakes she has made so far. Maybe her mistakes foreshadows something that will later occur in her adventure.
Hi Bryan:)
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you when you said this book was a dream turned into the novel; it kind of makes the book more captivating, despite the fact that it makes the story hard to follow and unorganized. There is so much imagination and wonder (hence the novel's title) througout the book and I can tell that you've captured it :D.
I also took note of the personification utilized throughout Alice's adventure. It adds creativity to the novel. Did you think that the animals could possibly reflect people in real life and their personalities?
Good job dude :)
Deuces! xD
