The Caterpillar advising Alice of Wonderland
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
After Alice drank the entire Drink Me Potion and shrank down to ten inches high, she brightened up because she was now the right size for going through the little door and into the beautiful garden. However, the little door was locked once again, and Alice left the key on the glass table. She was too tiny to reach the key. She tried climbing up one of the legs of the table to get the key, but it was too slippery. After she sits down and starts crying in frustration and scolding herself to stop, she noticed that a little glass box had magically appeared out of nowhere underneath the table. Inside the box was a small cake that had the words "EAT ME" marked on it in currants. After she ate the entire cake, she grew so large that her head struck against the ceiling in the hall.
