The most interesting thing books do is transporting you from sitting in your room or at a table in the library into a whole other universe. With a little imagination you feel as if you are part of this other universe and the characters are really your friends. You make such an intense connection with the characters you read about to the point where you miss them once the book is done because you feel as though you’ve grown up with them along the way. This is exactly what J.K. does with all of her novels. The Chamber of Secrets takes place in Harry Potter’s second year at the mystical school of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, a school where young wizards and witches, such as Mr. Potter, go to learn the dos and do-not’s of magic.
Another difference is that the Disney Alice is an eleven year old girl and Tim Burton’s Alice being nineteen years old and even old enough to marry. But the most recognizable difference in the two Alice’s is that the Disney Alice is an animated and slightly realistic character whilst Tim Burton’s Alice is played by Mia Wasikowska (Vah-shee-kof-ska). The similarities that we the audience see in both Alice’s, is that both are portrayed as beautiful young woman, with blonde hair, blue eyes with a blue victorian style dress. Despite having a 8 year gap between the two Alice’s, the Disney Alice is well mannered, polite, courteous, and mature with the elegance and gentleness of a woman. This notion is quite different with Tim Burton’s Alice who does not fit well in the upper-class Victorian lifestyle and social structure.

Unlike ‘Still Angela’s’ jolted time frame, ‘Ruby Moon’ has a very distinct progression, as it is highly episodic. The play making references to children’s books throughout emphasizes time in passages; skipping from character to character. Sylvie and Rays life consists like Angela of a routine, one day after the other rolling into one long fairytale, and within it a distinct beginning and end, as they endeavor to uncover the truth of ruby moon. In contrast both time and Angela has been jumbled up, as the audience closely takes part in her journey. It is does not use the same narrative style as Cameron; instead time in non-linear and the different stages of Angela’s life can coexist together.
