Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll
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.
Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has delighted and entranced children for over a hundred years. Lewis Carroll was the pen-name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. Born in 1832, he studied at Christ Church College, Oxford where he became a mathematics lecturer. The Alice stories were originally written for Alice Liddell, the daughter of the dean of his college. Sir John Tenniel (1820 –1914) was a Victorian topical cartoonist, caricaturist and illustrator. He is best remembered today for his work in ALICE’S ADVENTURES THROUGH WONDERLAND and ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS. Philip Pullman is one of the most famous children's writers in the world today. He is the acclaimed author the His Dark Materials trilogy and the recipient of many prestigious awards including: the 1996 Carnegie Medal, the Guardian Children's Fiction Award, the British Book Award and both the 2001 Whitbread Children's Book of the Year and the main Whitbread Book of the Year awards.
