Kal- Have you ever wondered why we actually read Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland?

Ben- Actually i was asking myself that for about 3 weeks and never got an answer to it, what’s your theory?

Kal- We have always wondered that and we want some student opinions and facts on why we read the book.

Ben- well i’ll start this discussion off. I think that the reason that we read it is because some high and mighty literature teacher was so profoundly confused by this work that instead of admitting his or her confusion labeled this book “a must read” so now we “GOTTA READ” it.

Kal- That is a great point Ben. I personally think that we read this because it has unlimited activities and projects that high schoolers world wide can do. Activities and projects include blogging, pod-casting, and even dreaded worksheets.

Ben- you do make a good point kal, but i still think that there are better novels to read and use as a launching pad for many of these activities.

Kal- True, true, true! We can’t forget that this was a top selling novel, that is another reason why the novel was chosen for us to read.

Ben- yes in fact it was a top selling novel, but that was during a time period where the choices of literature to read was was less than what we are exposed to in this day and time. If it was published today i don’t think that it would make it into the top 100 selling book.

Kal- No, definitely not! Especially with all of the other great books that have been published in the last year. Newer books would be fun to do pod-cast on because we would be able to relate to them a lot easier.

Ben- Now that you know our opinions on why we read this book we want to hear yours.

Kal- Yes, just comment us on this blog.

THANKS ALOT
