Question Answer
True or False: the illustrations for Alice and Wonderland were so specifically drawn for the story that publishers have to pair the illustrations with the book in every edition. True.

What kind of animal is this poem about: "How cheerfully he seems to grin, How neatly spread his claws, And welcome little fishes in With gently smiling jaws!" Crocodile.

The image of Alice swimming in her own tears is an image that suggests... That this tale is a fantasy but it also reflects the sorrows we bury ourselves into.
"'I'm afraid I am, sir,' said Alice; 'I can't remember things as I used—and I don't keep the same size for ten minutes together!' 'Can't remember what things?' said the Caterpillar. 'Well, I've tried to say "How doth the little busy bee," but it all came different!' Alice replied in a very melancholy voice." What is this conversation about? Alice has become unsure of things she grew up knowing to be true. She forgets poetry such as You Are Old Father William and she finds that she keeps shifting in size.
What activity was the Caterpillar enjoying when Alice came upon him? He was smoking hookah.
What famous person is the mock turtle based off of? Lewis Carroll.
At the end of Alice in Wonderland, how does Carroll compensate reality with this great fantasy tale? Alice was dreaming the whole time--her sister wakes her up from her deep sleep. She then missed Wonderland and could not wait to share the tale with others.
