She put the key in the lock. It was exactly the right size! She opened the door and looked through it. At the end of a low passage she saw a beautiful garden. It was full of brightly coloured flowers and fountains. Oh, how beautiful! she said. I39。d love to go there but I39。m too big to get through the door. She walked back to the table. There was a bottle on it now. I39。m sure that bottle wasn39。t there before, she said, a little confused. She put down the key and picked up the bottle. She read the words DRINK ME on it. Alice wasn39。t a stupid girl. She didn39。t drink it immediately. First she looked at the bottle carefully. There wasn39。t a label on it that said POISON. So she put the bottle to her lips and drank.
