X=A's chapter 6

In the story, Alice was looking at the house and wondering how to get in there. Alice is curious as to what is going on in the house. The door flies open and a plate comes out, which in turns causes Alice to duck. We all know Alice is a curious person, which is why she’s goes into the house. Alice is distracted by a smiling cat, then by the duchess, and her creature. The dishes started to go flying, hitting the duchess and her baby. The duchess stared to bounce the baby up and down, making the baby cry, and she started to sing a song. The duchess giving the creature to Alice. Alice goes outside and puts the creature on the floor and it turns into a pig.

A’lonyah:

For my connection of something that has to do with the story i chose the topic child abuse. I say child abuse because when having a child in the kitchen that’s like endangering your child. I think this because a lot of things can happen when you’re in the kitchen, because you can be cooking with grease and burn your child. I think this relates to chapter 6 because in the story the cook throws things at the creature which would be considered child abuse. The duchess may not have looked at it that way, for we here in reality look at it as child neglect.This relates to the Victorian Era because of child neglect. Women who have other people take care of their child. Another way this could relate to the victorian era because you don’t hear anything about the father, the women is taking care of the baby without the father’s help.

  1. Based on what I have read, I like your connections to the story because child neglect is a perfect relation to the way the Duchess treats her baby
