Charles Lutwidge Dodgson wrote this wonderful tale under the pen name of Lewis Carroll. It was written for Alice Liddell; the daughter of a fellow college professor at the University of Oxford in England and first published in 1871. The full title of the book is Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There. It was a sequel to Carroll's original tale Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. In this new story; Alice climbs through a mirror into a world where everything is upside-down. In this sequel; we see a mirror-image of Wonderland populated by some of the strangest creatures in fiction and considered the finest example of the ¿literary nonsense¿ genre. One of the classics of English literature; it remains popular within both adults and children. A beautiful edition with 50 classic John Tenniel illustrations and beautifully colored by artist Leo Batic.
