Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

CHAPTER I.

Down the Rabbit-Hole

Alicewas beginning to get very tiredof sitting by her sisteron the bank,and of having nothing to do:once or twiceshe had peeped into the bookher sister was reading,but it had no picturesor conversations in it,“and what is the use of a book,”thought Alice“without pictures or conversations?”

So she was consideringin her own mind(as well as she could,for the hot daymade her feel very sleepy and stupid),whether the pleasureof making a daisy-chainwould be worth the troubleof getting upand picking the daisies,when suddenlya White Rabbitwith pink eyesran close by her.
