The time has come, the walrus said...
I loved this book as a girl. I love it even more now. The drawings are the best part, and bring the story to life, showing the reader (or listener, as the case may be) what the characters look like. A real delight. In this case, the sequel was every bit as good as the original.

wonderful storytelling
this is a great story to read with kids, the writers of old have a certain magic to them and its great to read aloud. Having the illustrations also help to imerse into the stories.

Dreamy illustrations!
The book cover is absolutely stunning, like a dreamy work of art! As we read through it, both the kids and I are thoroughly enjoying the story. We still have plenty left to explore, but it's already a hit during our nap time reading sessions!

A timeless classic
What a wonderful writer and story teller (there is a difference) Lewis Carroll and what a treasure this timeless classic. For older children, but an engaging tale for adults as well. I love the re-release of these old masterpieces on digital format.

Fabulous story!
Lewis Carroll really knew how to write. Through the Looking Glass is a wonderful story. This would make a great read-aloud for families to read together at night. The original illustrations add such charm to the story. I highly recommend this edition.

It’s hard to sequel a classic, but this delivers
I hadn’t read Through the Looking-Glass before and enjoyed this trip in the past with another classic. It is filled with so many mini timeless classics.

The classic sequel, now including a quiz
This is an excellent rendition of the classic sequel; I got the ebook version. It includes the original artwork and a quiz at the end to help readers reflect on the story. It's a must-read for kids that they'll already be familiar with from cartoons.

Good continuation of the Alice's story!
My child read original Alice's Adventurers in the Wonderland and this book is a good continuation of the story. I like to buy books as a sets with the same or familiar design. Then it looks really nice on the bookshelf.

A Whimsical Continuation of a Beloved Classic
I read this enchanting book to my nephew, and it was a perfect continuation of the original Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The beautiful cover complements other classics on the bookshelf. The illustrations are delightful, and the story is as whimsical and entertaining as any child could hope for.

Classic book
I love this book because it's a classic book, and I was intrigued by the original illustrations. Of course, at times, it wasn't an easy read, but it's fantastic that the author had so much imagination. I'd still read it again.
