REVIEW#4 “ALICE IN WONDERLAND “
“ALICE IN WONDERLAND “
Alice in Wonderland is one of the most famous children’s books ever written. It became a success from the moment it was published, in 1865. Since then, it has been translated in 80 languages, adapted for theatre, television, and today it is one of the most quoted works in English literature.
Alice is a young girl who falls asleep and dreams about a place where all sorts of animals and things can speak and she can change her own size by eating or drinking different food items. You can tell right from the start that it is quite the wonderland. It all begins when she spots a white rabbit who can not only speak in English but actually carries a pocketwatch with him. He seems to be in a hurry as he keeps on checking the time and repeating the phrase -- "I shall be too late!" Alice finds this very intriguing and starts following the rabbit. And this is how she accidentally falls into a rabbit hole. Here, she see through a tiny door, a beautiful garden and it seems so green and luscious to her that she feels she must go there to play. But how will she get through the tiny door? What adventures lie ahead for Alice in this wonderland?
Read "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll to find out.
I enjoyed reading this book so much that I wish I had read it when I was younger. Young people should read this book because it opens up a world of adventure and makes our imagination run wild. At the same time, its writing style is such that the young reader will learn new things in an interesting way. It is an excellent book to read if you want to brush up on your English and have fun in the process. If you've read it as a child, I would suggest that you read it again as it would hold a deeper meaning for you now.
This story is about growing up and learning how the world works. It allows the reader to believe that one does not have to simply submit to the norms of his or her society and that it is okay to raise one's voice against cruelty and injustice. I believe that these ideas need to be engrained in our hearts if we want to make this world a safer and better place to live in.
