        Lots of people enjoy the peaceful and enjoy things a tea party has to offer. Tea party have been around since the 1700’s and have been enjoy ever since. Have tea parties help people relax, solve a problem and, more. In this chapter the mad hatter, the March hare and, the dormouse is having a tea party but were extremely rude and impolite toward Alice when she wanted to join. In the Victorian era this behavior would be unacceptable unusually the men would be more polite and pull the chair out for the female but they didn’t do that at all. Instead they insulted her and been extremely rude. They could have been rude to Alice for many reason because she wasn’t invited, they did thing she was old enough or they just didn’t like her.
