Extra Reading: Looking Glass


I decided to do extra reading for this assignment instead of the essay. I chose to read the second half of the Through the Looking Glass unit since I read the first part of it last week. I love the Alice and Wonderland stories since I grew up watching the Disney movie. This second half of the unit is quite different from the movie I grew up with. In the beginning Alice watches a battle between a red and white knight one claims to be holding her as a prisoner while the other is trying to set her free.  The white knight ultimately went on to win the battle. Then Alice gets into a situation with the Red and White Queens and she herself finds a crown and becomes a queen. She begins to shake one of the queens until she grows smaller and smaller and eventually turns into a kitten. This is the point when Alice awakens from her crazy dream. She was actually shaking her own kitten. Such a weird story…
