"All the while I was thinking... how can this be better than Alice in Wonderland? I found out that they're equally hilarious and witty. I only read an ebook of this on my phone so I couldn't help printscreening some memorable quotes. Hilarious! The argument among the Red Queen and the White Queen and Alice was quite memorable too!"

    " I enjoyed this book. It wasn't as good as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but it still has merit. For some reason, I kept expecting this book to tie into the first book, but it never did. That detracted a bit from my enjoyment, but it was due to my expectation, not due to the book itself. "

    " I enjoyed Through The Looking-Glass way more. The book is very wacky and hilarious and had many hidden true meanings which I enjoyed. Very random setiments, but worth reading. I also loved the poems in the story. "

    " I was very pleased that it was a lot easier to follow than Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. All of the chapters are more clearly intertwined and this story has a much clearer plot. I loved both stories and I am excited to dive into uncharted territory with brand new Lewis Carroll stories. "

    " I didn't like this as well as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, although it does contain some of the more famous (and awesome) poems that Carroll wrote, like The Jabberwocky and that one about the Walrus. It was just as weird as book 1, but not as funny. "

    " I dont know why, but it always amazes me how much liberty Disney takes with the classics. I'm a touch old for this one, but i enjoyed it quite a bit. "

    " Lewis Carroll is a genius of nonsense if ever there was! I do so love Alice, she's positively wonderful! However I was very annoyed with the clumsy Knight character, he was talked about so much and did so little, it got momentarily boring. Nonetheless a delightful, abstract, quirky little read! "

    " This was even stranger the second time round. I think one suspends belief more easily as a child. I enjoyed the humour and play of words more as an adult, but the strange changes from scene to scene left me feeling a little lost. "

    " Like Alice and Wonderland, this book was delightfully creative and fun. It wasn't quite up to the level of Alice and Wonderland, which is I why I give it four stars, rather than five. "
