Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister, with nothing to do.
She peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations.
And what is the use of a book without pictures or conversations?
Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 2: Oh dear! Oh dear! I can't be late!
Oh dear! Oh dear! I can't be late!
Alice started to her feet, burning with curiosity.
In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again.
She took down a jar…
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 3: She did not drop the jar for fear of hurting somebody underneath.
She did not drop the jar for fear of hurting somebody underneath.
After such a fall, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs!
They’ll all think I am at home!
I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!
Down, down, down. Would the fall never come to an end?
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 4: I wonder how many miles I’ve fallen by this time?
I wonder how many miles I’ve fallen by this time?
I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth.
That would be four thousand miles down, I think…
…yes, that's about the right distance. But what Latitude or Longitude have I got to?
I wonder if I shall fall right through the earth!
How funny it'll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downward!
Please, Ma’am, is this New Zealand or Australia?
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 5: Dinah’ll miss me very much tonight
Dinah’ll miss me very much tonight
I hope they’ll remember her saucer of milk at tea‑time.
I should think fast
How sleepy I’m getting… I can scarcely keep my eyes open.
Down, down, down. She landed on a heap of sticks and dry leaves.
Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it’s getting!
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 6: There were doors all round the hall, but they were all locked.
There were doors all round the hall, but they were all locked.
Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass.
Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small.
Behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high: she tried the little golden key in the lock, and it fitted!
She knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 7: No, I’ll look first, and see whether it’s marked ‘poison’ or not.
No, I’ll look first, and see whether it’s marked ‘poison’ or not.
The bottle was not marked ‘poison’.
What a curious feeling!
She was now only ten inches high.
She could not reach the little golden key.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated page 8: Well, I’ll eat it.
Well, I’ll eat it.
Which way? Which way?
She set to work and very soon finished the cake.
And still she was the same size.

About Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is a children’s fantasy about curiosity, transformation, and an imaginary world where ordinary expectations quickly lose their force. Alice leaves the familiar setting of a summer day to follow a talking White Rabbit, tumble down a deep rabbit-hole, and enter a strange hall of locked doors, tiny keys, mysterious food and drink, and a garden just out of reach. As she tries to make sense of what happens, her size changes in startling ways, while lessons, manners, cats, geography, and practical advice become material for playful speculation. The book invites you to experience its wonders alongside a thoughtful, inventive child who keeps testing the limits of what seems possible.

Carroll’s voice is light, conversational, and gently mischievous, blending vivid description with comic asides, nonsense, wordplay, and sharp observations about logic and childhood behavior. The Victorian setting appears in details such as schoolroom lessons, curtseying, Christmas deliveries, and formal social habits, yet the narration treats these conventions with an energetic imagination. Its quick shifts between the familiar and the absurd will appeal to children drawn to fanciful adventures, as well as adults who enjoy clever language, playful contradictions, and humor that rewards reading aloud.
