Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” opens with a scene of Alice reading over her sister’s shoulder. Alice sees a White Rabbit down a rabbit hole and decides to follow him. In Wonderland, she meets an assortment of strange characters including the Cheshire cat, who advises her to attend to tea party thrown by the March Hare. After the Mad Hatter tries to cut her hair, Alice runs away from the tea party. She soon finds herself in a garden, where servants are painting white roses red to satisfy the Queen of Hearts. Alice is called upon to testify against a bad thief. When Alice says that she knows nothing about the crime, the Queen orders her execution. Alice wakes up at the last minute to realize that was all a dream.
