Story
Alice climbs through a mirror into a fantastical world where flowers talk, everything is back-to-front and you have to run fast to stand still. She discovers that she is part of a giant Royal game of chess and meets peculiar characters like the mischievous Tweedledee and Tweedledum and the fearsome Jabberwocky.

Why we chose it
The sequel to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Although slightly darker it has the same dreamlike quality and zany characters. Packed with riddles, puzzles, jokes and inventive language.
