She felt like she was getting bigger and bigger like a giant telescope. She even said goodbye to her feet because they looked like they were disappearing. She wondered who would help her put on her shoes and socks now. She decided she needed to be kind to them so they would walk where she wanted to go. She planned to give them new boots every Christmas.%u201cOh dear, I%u2019m saying silly things!%u201d Suddenly, her head hit the hall%u2019s ceiling. She became taller, over nine feet now. She took the small golden key quickly and ran to the garden door, but she couldn%u2019t get through. She sat down and began to cry. Because he was very big, her tears were very big too.Alice said, %u201cI should stop crying like this!%u201d But she continued crying. Because of lots of tears, everywhere was full of water.After a while, she heard quiet footsteps far away. She wiped her eyes to see who it was. It was the White Rabbit with white gloves and a big fan. He was in a hurry and talking to himself about the Duchess.%u201cOh, the Duchess, the Duchess!%u201d he said. %u201cShe%u2019ll be angry with me because I%u2019m late!%u201dWhen the Rabbit came near, she said softly, %u201cExcuse me, sir.%u201d The Rabbit got a big surprise, dropped his gloves and fan, and ran away fast into the darkness.Alice picked up the fan and gloves. Because the hall was really hot, she fanned herself and said, %u201cOh dear! Everything is so strange today! Yesterday was normal. Was I the same when I woke up this morning? But if I%u2019m not the same, then who am I? That%u2019s the question!%u201d
