Through the looking-glass : and what Alice found there ([New] ed.)

Alice's second set of adventures takes her into a world even curiouser than Wonderland.

She finds herself caught up in the great looking-glass chess game and sets off to become a queen.

It isn't as easy as she thinks: at every step she is hindered by nonsense characters who crop up and insist on reciting poems.

Some of these, such as "The Walrus and the Carpenter" and "Jabberwocky", have become as famous as the Alice stories themselves.
