Alice's Adventures in Wonderland / HTML Edition

A curious child follows a rabbit down a hole and tumbles into a dreamlike realm where ordinary rules break down. The narrative moves episodically through surreal encounters — shrinking and growing, talking animals, a nonsensical tea party, a grinning cat, and a baffling trial — each scene playing with logic, language, and social ritual. Size changes, puzzles, and playful wordplay unsettle the heroine's sense of self and culminate in a chaotic courtroom scene that dissolves into awakening and a return to the ordinary world.
