The assignment: Find a text that complements Alice in Wonderland and create a book that illustrates some kind of interplay between the two.
In Wonderland, Alice meets new characters in settings like a kitchen and tea party, and inevitably has trouble adjusting to the "curious" social situations she finds herself in. Parties, tarts, and gardening are right up Martha Stewart's alley, so I decided to use excerpts from her first book, Entertaining, and issues of Living magazine as the secondary text.
