Alice in Wonderland

Weaknesses:

One of the things that let this version down is the fact that it does not go into much detail of the story. Unlike the Disney movie, it does not tell the great ‘Walrus and the Carpenter’ poem. Another weakness we discovered was that the illustrations Alice were too perfect. She could be seen as a pretty little girl whose ‘perfect blue skirt will never fly up to reveal too much of her petticoats’ (Cleaver, B. & Erdman, B., 1993). This may make it hard for young female readers to relate to the character, and therefore make it hard to connect with her.
