ENG 295 Week 4 Project Gutenberg

This week’s readings include a story from the author of The Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum, and the full text of Lewis Carroll’s classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. One common thread among the diverse readings this week is the concept of maturity, how it develops, as well as how literature instills a sense of imagination. Consider these themes as you review your readings, as you will examine them in this week’s assignment.
