In the book the Rabbit represents curiosity or the search.

For [HRC] he represented desire.

 

“Alice follows the rabbit because she is 'burning with curiosity.' Soon she finds things becoming 'curiouser and curiouser.'"

 

Alice gets in trouble because of her curiosity. The white rabbit tells her to run into the house to quickly fetch his gloves. While searching for them, she opens a cookie jar only to find a cookie with "Eat Me" written on it. Without thinking twice, she consumes the cookie.

 

She eats the cookie after being told the tale of the Curious Oysters, because a child will sometimes disobey and do something even after being told it is wrong. By eating the cookie, she demonstrates Kohlberg’s first theory of moral development, stage one of the preconventional level, which states that “right is whatever avoids punishment or gains reward” (Wood). Because there was no parent or adult figure around, curiosity prevailed against better judgment, and she ate the cookie.

 

children are the cookies
