1 Alice in Wonderland

“Oh, the Duchess, she will be angry if kept her waiting.

“Oh, Mr. Rabbit, could you please...? How rude！

What good the talking rabbit would be to the Duchess if he can’t even notice a very big girl sitting right here!

It’s so hot in here.

I wonder what my feet would do now that I can’t see them!

I hope they learn to keep themselves clean without my help!

Oh my!”

Alice was wearing the little white glove!

“How did this fit my hand!

How did I become so tiny?

It's the fan. The fanning has shrunk me.

I am so small now. Phew. That was close.

Salty water? Did I somehow fall into the sea? “

It then didn't take long for Alice to realize they were her tears, indeed.

Suddenly a big wave took Alice out of the door.

“Oh. Hope I dry soon.

Don't want to catch a cold now. “

“What are you doing here?

Go home and fetch me a pair of gloves and a fan.”

“What home?”

“My home. Over there. Now go. “

Alice was so confused and scared.

She started walking towards the rabbit's house without questioning him.

“He must have mistaken me for his maid.” she thought.

She entered into a tiny little room.

There upon a table was the fan and a pair of gloves and a little bottle.

“I know something interesting is sure to happen whenever I eat or drink.

Let me see what this bottle does.

I'm getting bored of being such a tiny thing.

Ah...”

Her head now touched the ceiling.

“I’m stuck.”

Just then the rabbit came.

“Ah. My hand. “

Alice was so uncomfortable. She wanted to stretch out her hand.

But ... “Ah... There is a hand coming out of the window of my house.

Oh, it’s a giant. Giant in my house. Help! Help!”

The animals gathered quickly.

The smallest one, Bill the Lizard, was asked to enter the house through the chimney. Alice managed to insert her foot into the chimney and oh...

The rabbit then had an idea, which wasn't the smartest, I must say.

(Noise.)

“It might help me shrink again. “

And that's what it did.

As soon as she was small enough, Alice ran out of the house, far away from all the animals into the forest.

“The first thing I’ve got .to do is grow back to my normal size. “

“I can help. Not that your size is anything to be embarrassed about.

Look at me. “

“Of course, that's not what I meant.

You're beautiful. “

“Of course I am. One side will make you grow taller.

And the other side will make you grow shorter. “

“One side of what? “

“Of the mushroom, of course. “

Now, the real question was to figure out the sides of a thing as around as a mushroom. Alice at last broke off bits from both the sides.
