20 Alice In Wonderland%u201cIt was not the Mouse. The White Rabbit was walking slowly and looking worried.%u201cThe Duchess! The Duchess! Oh my dear hands! Oh my fur and whiskers! She will get angry with me! She will punish me! Where did I drop them, I wonder?%u201dAlice thought, %u201cHe is looking for something. I want to help him. I think he dropped his fan and gloves.%u201dShe started to look around, but everything changed. She wasn%u2019t in a room. She was outside now.The White Rabbit shouted at her, %u201cWhy are you outside, Mary Ann? What are you doing there? Run home this minute and bring a fan and gloves! Quick now!%u201dAlice got very scared and quickly ran away. She thought to herself, %u201cI am not Mary Ann. He thought I was his housemaid! He%u2019ll be surprised when he learns who I am! I should bring him his fan and gloves, if I can find them.%u201d She found a nice little house with a sign saying %u201cW. RABBIT%u201d She went inside. %u201cHow funny,%u201d Alice thought, %u201cI am running errands for a rabbit! I think my cat Dinah will start asking me to do things soon!%u201dAlice found a tidy room with a table near the window. There, she saw a fan and some tiny white gloves, just like she wanted. She took the fan and a pair of gloves. As she was leaving, she saw a small bottle near the mirror. This bottle didn%u2019t have a label with the words %u201cDRINK ME%u201d on it.%u201cI always have something fun happen when I eat or drink,%u201d she thought. %u201cLet%u2019s see what this bottle does. I hope it makes me big again because I%u2019m tired of being so small!%u201d said Alice.It happened really fast! Before she drank half the bottle, her head almost hit the ceiling. Then she stopped drinking quickly. She thought, %u201cThat%u2019s too much! I hope I don%u2019t get any bigger. I can%u2019t even fit through the door now!%u201dIt was too late! She kept getting bigger and bigger, and soon she had to kneel on the floor. But she kept growing. Finally, she put one arm out of the window and one foot up the chimney.to punishhousemaidto run errandto cause to suffer for a crime or faulta woman servant whose job is to clean a large houseto go out to buy or do something:::Glossary
