Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

I read Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland book. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is an 1865 novel written by English author Lewis Carroll. His real name is Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. Lewis Carrol is  an English written, logician, mathematician, Anglican deacon and photographer. That’s why in this story plays very much with logic. Because in this story is logic also older people can read  this book even though that book is a children’s book.

That story tells of a girl named Alice. When she is outside with her sister Alice falls down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world. There is fantasy world live peculiar and anthropomorphic creatures. Alice adventures with creatures and her happens so weird things in a fantasy world. When she eat or drink something in a fantasy world she grow up or contract. Whole place is so weird and that’s why Alice come homesick. Luckily all’s well that ends well.

I think that book is not so good even though the book is very famous. It is boring and I don’t like it even though in this story is logic it is still childish. The end is very predictable and a little dumb. But children definitely like it. Without logic this book will be even boring, but the logic do this book a little interesting because you have to apply your brain that you understand what happening. Language in this story is not very difficult but there is some old words whiches don’t apply anymore. Though I don’t like this book I still recommend read Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. If you don’t like read you can watch it because Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is also film.

But Beth ex-husband try to get between Logan and Beth. Becauce Beth and her ex-husband have a boy, Ben. The ex-husband doesn’t be so nice to Logan. The situation get totally out of control. The end is not so good to everybody.

Plot is almost same than everyone other drama and romantic films. But I like this movie. I enjoy when I watch this film. That is touching and interesting film. You could identify everyone because they are so real. The actors were great and they fit good their role. It is easy to follow what they say. They speak very clearly. Music was good and beutiful. The music is compose Mark Isham. The movie don’t fit so young people because they don’t understand everything. If you like romantic and drama films I recommend The Lucky One movie to you.
