: : Hey Everyone~
: : I just finished reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland again and I had a question about the Caterpillar scene. To me, it seems that this scene is very important when it comes to Alice's inner growth. I see that she gains self-confidence after she talked with the Caterpillar. What about him makes her change? Does anyone have any insights about the Caterpillar and how he affects Alice?
: : Laura

: Yes.

: Up to this point, here growing and shrinking was not under her real control, except she didn't really need to eat the cakes or drink the bottles.

: After the caterpillar episode, she learns how to precisely control her size by eating of the grow and shrink parts of the mushroom.

: So, after the caterpillar episode, she indeed has much more control over this unusual environment she is in.

: She could seem more confident as a result.... as she makes herself the right size to go into the house of the Duchess.
