First Sentence:
Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do.
Alice was getting bored. She was sitting beside her sister who was reading a book without pictures. This to Alice seemed weird as she thought
what is the use of a book,' thought Alice 'without pictures or conversation
It was turning out to be a dull day for her when she noticed a rabbit moving nearby. The rabbit took out a watch from his waistcoat pocket and this was something that Alice had never seen a rabbit do. So Alice decided to follow the rabbit and jumped into the rabbit hole after him.
What did Alice found there??
Who was the rabbit and why was in hurry??
Well, you'll have to read the book to find out.
The book was a short read and its truly written for the kids. When i was reading it i felt i would have enjoyed it better as a child. There are some awesome scenes in it and there is humor. But there are times when i felt like i was thrown in the middle of the story and would have liked to know more about the characters. The story doesn't makes sense and the characters that Alice encounters are weird. But the story is fun and quick read and is good to pass the time.
Some funny quotes and dialogues from the books:
Well! I've often seen a cat without a grin,' thought Alice; 'but a grin without a cat! It's the most curious thing I ever saw in my life!'
We had the best of educations—in fact, we went to school every day—'
'I'VE been to a day-school, too,' said Alice; 'you needn't be so proud as all that.'
'With extras?' asked the Mock Turtle a little anxiously.
'Yes,' said Alice, 'we learned French and music.'
'And washing?' said the Mock Turtle.
'Certainly not!' said Alice indignantly.
'Ah! then yours wasn't a really good school,' said the Mock Turtle in a tone of great relief. 'Now at OURS they had at the end of the bill, "French, music, AND WASHING—extra
'And how many hours a day did you do lessons?' said Alice, in a hurry to change the subject.
'Ten hours the first day,' said the Mock Turtle: 'nine the next, and so on.'
'What a curious plan!' exclaimed Alice.
'That's the reason they're called lessons,' the Gryphon remarked: 'because they lessen from day to day'.
Here one of the guinea-pigs cheered, and was immediately suppressed by the officers of the court. (As that is rather a hard word, I will just explain to you how it was done. They had a large canvas bag, which tied up at the mouth with strings: into this they slipped the guinea-pig, head first, and then sat upon it
