Read this excerpt from the beginning Through the Looking Glass of by Lewis Carroll. "Kitty, can you play chess? Now, don't smile
, my dear, I'm asking it seriously. Because, when we were playing just now, you watched just as if you understood it: and when I said ‘Check!’ you purred! Well, it WAS a nice check, Kitty, and really I might have won, if it hadn't been for that nasty Knight, that came wiggling down among my pieces.” What can readers predict about Alice? She will have an active imagination. She will be a serious young girl. She will be a competitive chess player. She will have difficulties getting along with others.
