Hi kids! Ms. Booksy here at Cool School
with a new chapter of Alice in Wonderland!
Last time we checked in with Alice,
She met the Stupendous Drew Pendous in a top-secret lair!
Which is a fancy word for a hidden room.
Oooh!
Ok, let's see where she is now in Cool Schools' very own Alice in Wonderland chapter 5!
Hey guys! It's me, Alice!
After Drew and I got out of the secret lair, Drew disappeared...
like, he went on to another dimension or something!
Probably to do some super-hero stuff!
Anyway, I'm still trying to find my way out of this rabbit hole!
Oh look!
There's some nice-looking fellows that should be able to help me!
They're sleeping!
Shh!
Oh! I'm sorry!
Hey, wait a second...
you're just pretending!
We were hoping you would leave us alone!
Well that's rude!
Says the girl who interrupted our tea party!
You hair is too long! You should get a hare cut!
Why, you're rude too!
Besides, I like my hair!
And that rude little mouse is still pretending to be asleep,
even though we've met before!
I thought we were friends!
Oh no, he really is asleep!
Poor little guy's exhausted!
Oh dear... now I am the rude one!
No worries, have some tea!
I guess he's a sleep talker!
The other two introduced themselves as
The March Hare
and the Mad Hatter!
The March Hare was an odd creature indeed!
He would butter a piece of toast, take one bite
and say: "Yuck! Too much butter!"
and then onto the next piece of toast!
Same thing, over and over again!
And the Mad Hatter...
He was even odder!
Mooooo!
No, that's an utter.
I said odder!
Sorry!
An otter? Where?
Not that kind of otter!... Never mind!
Good, otters are utterly annoying!
Why do you keep dipping your watch into your tea?
Well, it all goes back to the time I killed time...
ALICE: And then the Mad Hatter told me the most ridiculous story!
He had to sing for the Queen.
He says he sang an old classic:
Twinkle, twinkle little bat.
How I wonder where you're at!
I told him he had the words all wrong!
But he insisted he was right,
and I was ruining his story!
On he went...
Up above the world you fly
like a tea tray in the sky!
ALICE: Anyway, you get the idea
Well the Queen jumped up and said he was "killing the time"!
And then she yelled:
Off with his head!
ALICE: The Mad Hatter managed to escape, head and all.
But ever since, time has been paused!
Stopped!
Finished!
El finito!
Yes, my watch stopped at 4 o'clock.
And we've just been here ever since!
It's aaalways tea time!
I do love tea time... but I wish dinnertime would come!
At least you don't ever have bedtime!
Bedtime is the worst!
Oh! But I do love bedtime stories!
Those are so cool!
I like stories about Princesses,
and dragons,
and pirates,
Oh!
And stories about tigers,
and robots,
and romance! Oh! I looove romance!
And adventure,
and ninjas,
and oh! Fairies!
And pixies!
And of course a story about a handsome prince!
Enough! We don't have time for you to list every kind of story ever told!
Rude!!
Besides, I thought you had a lot of time...
Weren't you listening?
We have noooo time!
That's very confusing!
All I know is, you are a very rude bunny!
And you are a very rude...
hatter! Whatever that is...
And you, Mr. Mouse.
I thought you were supposed to be nice!
I am dear!
Quite nice! Lovely to see you!
Well, lovely to see you too.
As for the rest of you:
[blows raspberry]
I'm goin'!
Perfect!
Goodbye! No...
Bad-bye!
It's the garden I've been looking for!
Woo hoo!
Wow! Alice finally made it to the garden!
I can't wait to see what happens next!
Let's read chapter 6 right now!
