It is also possible that they can take her to the unexpected.
Following a rabbit many years ago she was taking by suprise. I was following a rabbit while out for a hike in an extremely dense wooded area and i soon lost track of the rabbit. I looked around and around in the thick brush that i thought i saws the rabbit run into. Just as i was about to leave i saw the rabbit sitting in the croach of a tree. Ive never in my life heard of or seen a rabbit ever climb a tree. This is similar to how Alice is learning to follow her own instincts and the creatures that surve as her guides.

    “Effective nonsense keeps one foot on the ground; fantasy needs a realistic background, a frame of familiar reference. A tour of Wonderland without the practical, very English little Alice to serve as norm would be tedious indeed. But the presence of Alice as norm, as the embodiment of Victorian practicality and industry, suggests that the Alice books may have satiric implications. (Matthews 109).…

    Alice in wonderland is an adventurous book full of mystery, conflicts, and surprisingly allegory. Alice goes through trails, revelations, and at one point even gets accused of “being the wrong Alice.” In this story, Alice believes that she is dreaming and having a weird one at that, but in reality she is not really dreaming. Alice is really trying to find herself and with that she is portraying the conflicts in her life through the world of wonderland. To me wonderland is just a dimension of realization and a way for Alice to find the answers to the questions that she needs. But will Alice realize this in time or will she go on through her “dream” without any realization at all? In Alice in wonderland there are many cases of allegory. The cases the i will be pointing out and defining in my own words are “The Rabbit Hole”, “Size and Growth”, and “The Looking - Glass.” In this essay i will explain my theories and definitions of the allegory in Alice in Wonderland.…

    There she meets the quantum mechanic and the classic mechanic. While there Alice comes across Schrodinger's cat. Schrodinger’s cat is used to explain the superposition principle.(Robert Gilmore, pg 45) The superposition principle states that when unobserved, an object is in any possible state. Schrodinger devised a thought experiment to explain this. Imagine a cat locked in a box with a flask filled with poison gas, and a mechanism that would break the flask. should a sample of radioactive material happen to decay. If the material decays, the cat will die. There is no definitive proof that the radioactive material will decay. When unobserved the cat and the material are both in a superposition of states. The cat is both dead and alive, and the material is both intact and decayed. When observed nature is forced to choose one of the two…

    Imaginative Journey

    Magic is symbolised through the constant music in the film. This is evident when Alice opens the door to the beautiful garden. The director uses a calming instrumental piece of music to show the difference between the reality in Alice’s life and the reality in the magical world behind the small door. The use of a close up shot enforces Alice’s facial expressions to show the audience her excitement and interest in entering the garden. What the audience discovers in Alice’s magical journey is that she’s trying to use magic and her imagination as a platform for self-expression. For example, the rabbit and all the magical characters she meets, from the rude caterpillar to the Cheshire cat, all help her through her imaginative journey. Her fear of speaking in front of people is a reoccurring motif and each character plays a part in helping her overcome this fear. The caterpillar tells her “everything has a purpose, even here”. Her ‘purpose’ was not only to escape her boring life with magic and imagination, but rather meet that life head on and conquer her…
