Alice continues to speak about a number of bizarre things and when she climbs onto the chimney-piece and travels through the looking glass. While Dinah washes her kitten Snowdrop, Alice lectures Dinah's other kitten, Kitty about manners after unrolling a ball of twine and tries to have her pretend she is the Red Queen.
The themes and settings of Through the Looking-Glass make it a kind of mirror image to the first Alice title: the first book begins outdoors, in the warm month of May, uses frequent changes in size as a plot device, and draws on the imagery of playing cards the second begins in a snowy, wintry night in November, uses frequent changes in time and spatial directions as a plot device, and draws on the imagery of chess. Both novels were written by Charles Dodgson, published under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll, and both the first editions were illustrated by John Tenniel.
Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There is a 1871 fictional fantasy novel and the sequel to the 1865 title Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
