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.
