Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll Pg. 91-100
Alice continues talking to the Cheshire cat about which way she should go. The cat simply asks Alice where she wants to go but she doesn't know. So he tells her where the Mad hatter and the March hare live. She decides to go see the March hare, but she comes across a Mad Tea Party. They tell her there is no room at the large table but she sits down anyway. Sitting at the table are the March hare, the Mad hatter, and a dormouse. The Hatter tells Alice she needs a hair cut and then tells a riddle. Then everyone starts talking frantically about that riddle.

Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll Pg. 82-90
Alice decides to ignore the frog and go into the house. There she sees a Duchess holding a baby, a cook, and a Cheshire cat with a big smile on its face. Everyone, except for the cook and the cat, keep sneezing because the cook keeps putting too much pepper in the soup. The cook then goes on a rampage, throwing anything she can find at the baby, the Duchess, and Alice. The Queen decides to leave this chaos and throws the baby at Alice saying that she is going to go play a game of croquet. Alice leaves the house and takes the baby with her fearing that it might be killed in a few days. The baby then starts snorting and turns into a pig and runs into the woods. She starts walking when she comes across the Cheshire cat with the biggest smile she has ever seen.

Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll Pg.71-81
After eating the mushroom, Alice grows taller and taller until her head is above all the trees. She then accidentally runs into a pigeon who keeps worrying about the snakes eating her eggs. The pigeon assumes that Alice is a snake because of her long neck, and starts to attack her. After that, she eats more of the other side of the mushroom to get smaller. From the woods she sees a tiny house where a person is running to with the face of a fish. The fish knocks on the door and a man with the head of a frog comes out to talk to him. The fish gives the frog and over sized letter and the frog reads it. Alice tries to stay quite but she can't help laughing at the both of them.

Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll Pg. 52-60
The people of Wonderland try to help Alice get out of the house. A lizard tries to go down the chimney and help Alice, but Alice gets squeamish and accidently kicks him. In addition, she also threatens to bring her cat, Dinah, to eat them all. The others try to help the lizard outside, while Alice spots a little cake inside. It looks like the one she ate before that made her smaller so she eats it. Sure enough she gets smaller and smaller. She runs outside the house to help the lizard but then everyone starts to chase after her, so she runs as fast as she could into the woods. She then meets a dog that is much larger than she is that she plays fetch with.
