is a children's novel written by Lewis Carroll in 1871. It is the continuation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (but makes no reference to what happens in that book). Many things that happen in the book seem, metaphorically, reflected in a mirror. While the first book plays with living letters, this time Alice finds herself in a crazy game of chess. Carroll provides a list of movements that occur in it, although some of them go against the rules of the game, like a small child who was playing. No exact characters Alice appear in Wonderland, only the image of the Mad Hatter as Hatta (whose English pronunciation sounds like hatter, hatter) and the March Hare as Haiga (whose English pronunciation is taken sounds like Hare, Hare) on the seventh (the Lion and the Unicorn), a different character in this second book.

Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There (1871) is a sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). In this delightful and amusing story (with a chess board as the backdrop), Alice encounters the Red Queen, the White Queen, a Knight, live flowers, insects, Tweedledee, Tweedledum, Humpty Dumpty, the Unicorn, the Lion, and other memorable characters. As in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, there is frequent use of word play. There is also great poetry as well. In sum, Through the Looking Glass is just as entertaining as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
