It is an interesting story about a girl named Alice, who follows the WhiteRabbit down a rabbit hole and finds herself in Wonderland. She not only finds the White Rabbit, but also meets other animals such as the Dormouse and theCaterpillar. During her adventure, Alice eats and drinks things that make her changein size. At last, Alice enters a garden, where she happens tosee a trial (審判). The Knave of Hearts is accused of (被指控)stealing the Queen of Hearts’ tarts (甜餡餅), while the King of Hearts is the judge.

The classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, anEnglish author, was fantastic and entertaining. It took you to a worldof fantasy. The entire storyline is so imaginative. Alice, with her pleasant personalityis attractive. It is one of the classics needed to complete your bookshelf.

Passage2 The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

It is an interesting story about a girl named Dorothy, who is taken away fromher home in a storm and finds herself in the Land of Oz. Dorothy, together with hercompanionsthe Tin Woodman who wants a heart, the Scarecrow who wants a brain and the Cowardly Lion who wants courage, journeys in search of the wizard inorder to return home. After facing many difficulties, they successfully meet theGreat Oz, who in fact is not a wizard. However, the old man gives the Scarecrow a brain made of pins and needles, the Tin Woodman a heart made of silk and filled with sawdust and the Cowardly Lion a bottle of courage. In the end, Dorothy finallygets home to where her aunt and uncle live. They are very glad to find her safe and sound.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum, is an enjoyableAmerican classic. What I loved most were Dorothy’s trustworthy friends, who werealways there when Dorothy needed help. Dorothy is also loved by everyone for her sweetness and honesty. If you have not read it, why don't you give yourself a treat?
