“Who are you?” asked the Caterpillar.

“Why?” said the Caterpillar.
Here was another puzzling question. As Alice could not think out any good reason,and as the Caterpillar seemed to be very unpleasant,she turned away. “ Come back! ” the Caterpillar called after her. “ I've something important to tell you! ”
