Connotation.
-the bright colours connotes that the scene gives a happy era and that 
The picture is friendly and playful
-the colourful cat with a cheeky grin on his face shows that he is having a good time messing about on the girls head. 
-we can tell that the girl is young from her ribbon in her hair and the white pinafore she is wearing unders her sky blue dress.
-through the expression on her face we can tell that she is annoyed by the the cat sitting on her head because her eyes are looking up at him. 
-Her hands are placed under her chin this connotes she is fed up .
-her cheeks have turned a rosy colour connoting that she may also be embarrassed and humiliated by the cats silly behaviour.

Summary
This drawing represents a playful cat who is messing around on a young girls head. She is reluctant on telling him to stop so she puts her head into her hands and bares the humiliation of how the cat is mucking about. 

I think the cat represents being young and playful. I think this because of the position he is in and the huge grin spread across his face.

Although the girl on the other hand is fed up I think this represents growing because as we all know in the story of Alice and wonderland it is all about growing up, and Alice not playing back with the Cheshire Cat shows she has matured and is to old for messing around.
