Lewis Carroll's

Alice, the protagonist, must navigate this mysterious land

known as "Wonderland." She is a 7-year-old girl who falls asleep while
sitting with her sisters and enters this world by falling down a rabbit
hole. Throughout the novel, she follows the White Rabbit, who takes
her on several adventures. Alice in Wonderland is full of fantastical
characters, each of whom adds a layer of humor and depth to the plot.
When Alice falls down the rabbit hole, she meets a variety
of talking animals as well as an eccentric Queen. Alice is the
story's heroine, a young girl who embarks on an adventure in
Wonderland.

 RISING
The rising actionACTION
of the story starts when she met the white
rabbit and when she's meeting new characters. The events of the
following chapters creates the rising action of the story.

Down the Rabbit Hole: When sitting on the riverbank with her
older sister, a seven-year-old girl is bored and drowsy. She notices a
talking, white rabbit with a pocket watch run by. She follows it
down a rabbit hole to a strange hall with a plethora of locked doors
of various sizes.
 RISING
The Pool of Tears: The chapter begins with Alice rising to such enormous
ACTION
proportions that her head reaches the ceiling. Alice, who has shrunk due to
a fan she picked up, swims through her tears and encounters a mouse who
is also swimming.

The Caucus Race and a Long Tale: Other creatures and birds that have been
washed away crowd the sea of tears. Mouse gives them a dry history lesson
about William the Conqueror. A dodo determines that a Caucus-Race, in
which everyone runs in a circle with no definite winner, will be the perfect
way to dry them off. Alice, unintentionally, scares all the animals away by
talking about her pet.
 RISING ACTION
The Rabbit Sends a Little Bill: The White Rabbit reappears, this time in search
of the Duchess' gloves and fan. Alice drinks from a bottle and grows once
more. The terrified Rabbit directs his gardener, Bill the Lizard, to scale the
roof and descend the chimney.

Advice from a Caterpillar: Alice comes across a mushroom with a blue

caterpillar smoking a hookah lying on it. Caterpillar confronts Alice, who
starts to acknowledge her current identity crisis. The mushroom would
make her taller on one side and shorter on the other.
 RISING
ACTION
Pig and Pepper: A fish-footman delivers an invitation to the Duchess of the
House to a frog. Alice witnesses this transaction and, after a perplexing
conversation with the frog, enters the home. The Duchess gives Alice the
baby, and to Alice's horror, the baby transforms into a pig.

A Mad Tea-Party: Alice attends a "crazy" tea party with the March Hare, the
Hatter, and a rather tired Dormouse. Many riddles and stories are told to
Alice by the characters, including the popular "why is a raven like a writing
desk?"
 RISING
ACTION
The Queen's Croquet Ground: Alice leaves the tea party and enters the
greenhouse, where she encounters three living playing cards who are
painting white roses on a rose tree red because The Queen of Hearts
despises white roses. The Queen, a difficult figure to please, introduces her
signature phrase "Off with his head!" when she is dissatisfied with a topic.

The Mock Turtle's Story: At Alice's order, the Duchess is brought to the
croquet ground. She muses about how she can find values in anything
around her. On the threat of execution, the Queen of Hearts dismisses her.
 RISING ACTION
Lobster Quadrille: Though Alice recites (rather incorrectly) "'Tis the Voice of
the Lobster," the Mock Turtle and the Gryphon dance to the Lobster Quadrille.
The Mock Turtle sings "Beautiful Soup," as the Gryphon drags Alice away for
an imminent hearing.

Who Stole the Tarts?: Alice attends a court hearing in which the Knave of
Hearts is accused of stealing the Queen's tarts. Bill the Lizard and the
White Rabbit are among the animals on the jury. During the proceedings,
Alice notices that she is expanding and is chastised by a dormouse.

Those are Alice's curious adventures.

 CLIMA
Alice grows to her fullX
size and contradicts the Queen of
Hearts in the trial of the stolen tarts. Alice is called up as a
witness, but she inadvertently knocks over the jury box,
which contains the animals. The King and Queen issue an
order for Alice to leave, citing Rule 42. Alice disagrees with
their decision and refuses to leave. After all, the Queen
admits that Alice was the culprit responsible for stealing the
tarts.
 FALLING
ACTION
Alice's sister wakes her up from a sleep by brushing some
leaves from her forehead, rather than a shower of playing
cards. Alice abandons her sister on the bank to ponder all the
strange occurrences for herself.
