In this episode of Once Upon a Storytime Podcast, we continue Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll with Chapter 11, “Who Stole the Tarts?” where Alice finds herself attending one of the strangest trials ever held.
Join Alice as the Knave of Hearts stands accused of stealing the Queen’s tarts and the King of Hearts presides over a courtroom filled with familiar Wonderland characters. The White Rabbit reads the accusation, the jurors scribble furiously on their slates, and the Mad Hatter is called to give his very nervous evidence. Soon, the Duchess’s Cook takes the stand, adding even more confusion to a trial that seems to grow more ridiculous by the minute.
Filled with curious witnesses, questionable evidence, royal nonsense, and plenty of courtroom confusion, this chapter begins Wonderland’s final mystery—just as Alice notices that she herself is beginning to grow once again.
