Analysis of setting

The setting of the section that I was assigned seemed to be similar to the setting of the rest of the book.(Ancient times) It seemed to be a magical place in which imagination was the influence or theme of design. Alice, just as before, keeps discovering new creatures and new places that she has never seen or been in before. The interesting thing about it is that as she gets older, or as she stays longer in wonderland , the setting seems to modernize in a way. It almost seems to be developing into a newer age, but as wonderland may develop the magical creatures never seems to leave or become less magical.
In the beginning of my section alice finds herself in a new area and finds herself at the feet of two new “funky” characters named Tweedledum and Tweedledee. Then after conversing with them for a while she finds herself with the red king.(The red king is the king of the new land she has entered) Throughout my designated section the scenery always seems to be between two major themes which are a forest and a beach.
The setting in this book is truly what kept me interested because the author made so much attention to detail that you can almost picture it in your head as your reading. Now that to me is awesome.
