A part of chapter 1: Down the Rabbit-Hole
Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, `and what is the use of a book,' thought Alice `without pictures or conversation?'
So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy- chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.
There was nothing so very remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so very much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, `Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!' (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat- pocket, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge.
In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again.
The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well.
Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next. First, she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to, but it was too dark to see anything; then she looked at the sides of the well, and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs. She took down a jar from one of the shelves as she passed; it was labelled `ORANGE MARMALADE', but to her great disappointment it was empty: she did not like to drop the jar for fear of killing somebody, so managed to put it into one of the cupboards as she fell past it.(...)

Plot of Alice in Wonderland Movie (2010, Tim Burton)
Alice, an unpretentious and individual 19-year-old, is betrothed to a dunce of an English nobleman. At her engagement party, she escapes the crowd to consider whether to go through with the marriage and falls down a hole in the garden after spotting an unusual rabbit. Arriving in a strange and surreal place called "Underland," she finds herself in a world that resembles the nightmares she had as a child, filled with talking animals, villainous queens and knights, and frumious bandersnatches. Alice realizes that she is there for a reason--to conquer the horrific Jabberwocky and restore the rightful queen to her throne.

The Queen of Hearts
Is a character who is usually angry, and all your problems, serious or simple, resolves with: Off with his head. Physically is a letter, but gives the impression of being big and powerful.
The Queen of Hearts rules over Wonderland and is a tyrant - violent, authoritative and dominant. She likes to play croquet with live flamingoes and hedgehogs as mallets and balls (but only when she wins, and by her own rules) and constantly orders the beheading of people when something isn't to her liking (although these orders apparently never are actually carried out). She also has her own ideas about how trials should be conducted, and is feared by all other Wonderland inhabitants because of her lack of patience and explosive character.

American Mc Gee´s Alice (video game)
In this game, Alice has lost her mind, and one can help you recover and save it from itself. They use the real name of Alice (Alice Liddell)
Alice
It is a series launched in 2009, which shows that Alice has a boyfriend, who was kidnapped by an organization called White Rabbit, which is responsible for drawing the emotions of humans to keep people under control.
First movie of Alice in wonderland
37 years after the book Alice in Wonderland was published, a movie was released in 1903, which despite its low budget, was quite far. It holds true to the story told in the book, and featuring characters such as the Duchess.
The film of Disney
The Alice in Wonderland film produced by Disney, in its beginnings was widely criticized, as it was a copy of the book, the Cheshire Cat does things that do not appear in the book, and merge the queen of hearts with the red queen . Alice also appears Americanised.
Top five quotes of Alice in Wonderland
1) 'Curiouser and curiouser!' cried Alice.
2) 'But then,' thought Alice. 'shall I never get any older than I am now? That'll be a comfort, one way--never to be an old woman--but then--always to have lessons to learn!'
3) `Who are YOU?' said the Caterpillar.
This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, `I--I hardly know, sir, just at present-- at least I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.'

4) `Keep your temper,' said the Caterpillar.
5) `But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'
Alice didn't think that proved it at all; however, she went on` And how do you know that you're mad?'
`To begin with,' said the Cat, `a dog's not mad. You grant that?'
`I suppose so,' said Alice.
`Well, then,' the Cat went on, `you see, a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad.'
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'

Caterpillar
It is an unpleasant character, refuses to reveal his identity to Alice. He said that the fungus has the effect of making it grow or shrink.
The Caterpillar is sitting on a mushroom while smoking a hookah, when Alice first meets him. Although he is rather strict and not very friendly, and corrects Alice's recitation of a poem, he does help her by advising her to eat from the mushroom if she wants to change her size. In the end, he crawles away. In the Disney movie, however, he changes into a butterfly.

The caterpillar has legs, being a caterpillar, which is rare, but is supposed to be the Wonderland, it may be normal.
Alice
She is very imaginative and dreamy, too, something that stands out is that it confuses the words, what is not normal for their age. She tries to be nice to make more friends, but unfortunately it fails because it is not adapted to the strange world in which the story unfolds. She has trouble understanding what is happening in this strange world, but after realizing that it is not normal, try to see it as the locals.
Alice tries to be good, but their intentions are sometimes unsuccessful and, in the encounter with the pigeon, which they confuse with a serpent.
At the end of the play, at trial she "rebels" and contradicts the king of hearts, while the queen's fury is unleashed, she tells them it is only a deck of cards, and when they are rushing against it The dream ends.
The physical description of Alice, according to Carroll, is the face, the version of anime or Disney are quite different.

Author's Biography
Lewis Carroll is the pseudonym of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. That name was invented prepared by one of those games characteristic of the author. It comes from the transposition and romanization of their names: Lutwidge = Lodovicus = Lewis; Charles = Charolus = Carrol.
He was born on January 27, 1832 - Guildford, Surrey, January 14, 1898)
In 1885, at age 23, was appointed professor of mathematics at Christ Church College, University of Oxforfd.
The math was his true profession, Alice in Wonderland was a fun career in Carrol. It originated in an oral improvisation designed to entertain little girls: Alice Liddell and her two sisters, daughters of a colleague.
Carrol, or the Reverend Dodgson (he was ordained deacon, but just officiated as a clergyman), appears in Alice in Wonderland, "the Dodo" (a slight reference to his tendency to stutter, which made the submission as Do… do Dodgson).
He never married, but loved the girls. It was at the insistence of Alicia herself she decided to start writing the story and then publish it in 1865. And although he had never drawn, the author accompanied the issue with their own illustrations.
The title of the manuscript was Alice `s adventures underground, but when it was published and was titled Alice in Wonderland. Along with his then Alice Through the Looking Glass, the work has had universal success, becoming one of the most widely read books in the world. It has been translated into over 40 languages.

The rabbit
The white rabbit is the second character to appear, Alice still does not know where it goes. This can be interpreted as blindly following someone without knowing it
