In Lewis Carroll's book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice first cries in Chapter 1, Down the Rabbit Hole.
She is upset because after being pleased that she has shrunk small enough to fit through the little door that leads to the beautiful garden, she realises that she has left the key to the door on the glass table and it is out of reach.
She soon cries again, in Chapter 2, The Pool of Tears. She has eaten the cake marked 'eat me' and is glad that she has now grown large enough to reach the golden key. However, she quickly realises that as she is now over nine feet tall, she has no chance of fitting through the little door.
Her last bout of crying in this scene occurs as a result of an identity crisis and loneliness. Because she changes so suddenly and so dramatically, she wonders if perhaps she is no longer herself and has been exchanged for somebody else during the night. She is distressed to conclude that she must have been exchanged for Mabel, a girl of the same age as Alice who "knows such a very little" and lives in a "poky little house" with "next to no toys to play with, and ever so many lessons to learn." She very soon wishes that someone would put their head down the hole to call her back home as she is, "so very tired of being all alone here!"
