"If I get taller, I can reach the key on the table. And if I get smaller, I can enter the garden. "said Alice. Then she finished a piece of cake.
Soon she grew up to three metres tall. She hurried to the garden door after getting the key. But she was too tall. She cried and found a large pool of salt water around her. Suddenly, she heard a voice.
It was the White Rabbit again. He was hurrying down the room with a pair of gloves and a fan.
"Hi, sir…"Alice's voice frightened the Rabbit. He dropped the gloves and the fan and ran away quickly. Alice picked them up.
She said, "Oh! How strange! Shall I get smaller again?"She felt very low again.
Feeling too hot, Alice cooled down with the fan. Surprisingly, she found herself wearing one glove. "How did I get it?"She thought. "Oh, I'm getting smaller now. How to stop it?""It must be the fan!"SoAlice dropped it quickly.
"Things are getting worse, "thought poor Alice. She turned away from the door and fell into salt water that was the pool of her tears.
Alice swam around and looked for a way out but failed. Then she saw an animal, looking big but only a mouse.
"Shall I speak to it?"thought Alice. "Everything is very strange here, so perhaps it can speak too. "
Then she began, "Oh, Mouse, do you know the way out of this pool?"The mouse looked at her but said nothing.
"Perhaps it's a French mouse. "Remembering the first sentence in her French book, she said, "Where's my cat?"Then the mouse jumped out of the water angrily.
