Alice's+Evidence

Jacob Maxcy Mrs.Slawson English 12 3/6/09 Alice in Wonderland is considered a coming of age story because all kids make a transition from being too small to being just small. By that I mean that kids feel that no matter how big they are adults always say “No you can’t do that because you’re too small.” Which frankly I hated as a kid and now as an adult I’m still told that only because I’m still in High school. So in a certain point of view Alice is not just a coming of age story but also teen and young adults. In the book //Alice in Wonderland// Alice is in stage when a young girl hits puberty and is finding out about the world. Adults in alice are 1. careless 2. power hungry 3. strict 4. in attentive 5. filled with knowledge 6. talk in rhyme 7. act like children
