Think about how Alice acts and thinks at the beginning of the play. List four characteristics that she shows at the beginning of the play. For each characteristic, include a detail from the play as support.

Alice is childish. For example, her conversation with Lewis Carroll about how she wants to be a queen shows that she is young and lacks wisdom.

She is curious. Throughout the story, she shows her curious nature by asking plenty of questions to the people or creatures she meets. For instance, at the beginning of the story, when she finds Carroll playing chess, she asks him a lot of questions about what the game is about and how it is played.

She has a great imagination. At the start of the play she is dreaming about exploring the room behind the mirror: “Don’t you wish sometimes you could go into looking-glass house? See!”

She is honest and frank. She calls Humpty Dumpty an egg. She calls attention to the odd shape of his body: “If only I knew which was neck and which was waist.”
