Chapter 2 Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

"Oh Dear what nonsense I'm talking!" pg 10

I find this quote ironic becasue right now where the story is taking place nothing to the reader makes sense.For example a little later into the chapter her tears turn into an ocean with a shore.It is very peculiar how Lewis Carroll wants us to see the book.Normally you try and put things together but with this book you have to let things unravel by themselves.In many parts of this book she is talking nonsense but in wonderland anything can happen and everything is understandable.When she sees the rabbit she turns into a child playing tag or hide and seek.While if she is trying to solve a problem or get out of sticky situation she uses her brain like an adult.

"Alice led the way and the whole party swam to the shore." pg 15

Like I said I don't understand how her tears can become a ocean of tears in the matter of seconds.There is a significance to this quote, like a metaphor.For example "Her ocean of tears helped her get out of where she was trapped." I know that Lewis Carroll tries to connect things in secret or does it in a way that is not completely oblivious.The way that Lewis just transitions the the area from a room to an ocean and how all these characters just pop out of no where.{Q}Why is Alice the one to led instead of someone that is from wonderland themselves.
