Reading notes: Alice in Wonderland part A

•  alice was sitting on the riverbank bored with her sister one day 
• a rabbit ran by saying it was going to be late
• the rabbit went down a rabbit hole and she followed it, falling down a tunnel 
• she fell very slowly and passed many objects on her way down
• she fell upon a pile of leaves and got up, seeing the rabbit sprint down another tunnel and going after it 
• she came upon a bunch of locked doors and then a tiny key that opened a tiny door
• she couldn't fit through the tiny door and when she turned around there was a drink that turned her very small
• she tried to go through the door but forgot the key on the table and couldn't reach it 
• there was a thing with cake on the floor that she ate and expected to change size, but she didnt
• she grew to nine feet tall and couldn't find anything else to eat so she could shrink
• when she was tall she saw a catepillar on top of a mushroom smoking hookah that asked her who she was and she said she didn't know 
• he had an attitude with her and she couldn't answer his questions 
• the caterpillar tells a tale about father William 
• the caterpillar asks her what size she wants to be and she says she doesn't want to be 3 inches and he gets mad
• she eats some of the mushroom and shrinks 
• she turns into a serpent like creature with a long neck and a pidgeon attacks her thinking she is one
• she kept eating the mushrooms until she was her normal height 
• she came across a small house and kept eating the mushroom until she was 9 inches high 
• a frog in a costume came and knocked on the door and the two footmen talked
• the letter was for the duchess from the queen inviting her to croquet 
• the footman was outside when she knocked so he said there was no use in her knocking because it was so loud inside 
• alice finally let herself in after arguing with the footman and the duchess was there and a cook
• she asked the duchess why the cat was smiling that big and she said because it is a Cheshire cat
• the cook took off the soup and started throwing things at the duchess and the baby 
• alice asked her to be gentle not to hit the baby and the duchess told her to mind her business and kept shaking the baby 
• alice took the baby so it didn't die, but noticed it looked like a pig 
• she set the pig down and saw the cat again smiling at her 
• he tells her a hare and a mad hatter live close 
• he asked her if she was playing croquet with the queen and that he would see her there
• he asked what happened to the baby and after she answered he vanished
