Алиса в Стране чудес / Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

However, this bottle was not marked 'poison,' so Alice decided to taste it, and found it very nice (it had a taste of a cherry-cake, ice-cream, pine-apple, roast turkey, and hot toast).

'How strange I feel' said Alice; 'I am sure I am not so large as I was.'

And so it was indeed: she was now only ten inches high. She was now the right size to go through the small door and get out to that beautiful garden. So she decided to enter; but, alas for poor Alice! she forgot the little golden key, and when she went back to the table for it, she could not reach it: she was too little. Poor little Alice sat down and cried.

Soon she saw a little glass box that was lying under the table: she opened it, and found in it a very small cake, on which she noticed the words 'EAT ME'. 'Well, I'll eat it,' said Alice, 'and if I grow larger, I can reach the key; and if I grow smaller, I can creep under the door!'

She soon ate all the cake.

'How strange!' cried Alice; 'how tall I am! Good-bye, my feet! Oh, my poor little feet, who will put on your shoes and stockings for you now, dears?'
