Alice was sitting by the river having an oh-so-ordinary afternoon, when a White Rabbit ran by. Not just any old rabbit, but one with pink eyes, a red jacket, and a great big pocket watch.
“Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!” he groaned, looking at his watch. Then ZIP! he disappeared down a rabbit hole.
Alice did what any curious girl or boy would do. She followed him right into the hole.
