Lewis Carroll. In the Looking-Glass House, or What Did Alice Find on the Other Side of the Looking-Glass?

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the looking glass? The famous Alice discovered this, and Lewis Carroll described the details of her journey.

The stories about Alice's extraordinary adventures are among the most famous children's books. The main character – a brilliant, sensitive girl who experienced strange situations in an alien world – first in Wonderland, only to end up in "Through the Looking Glass" in the second book in the series. The subtitle adds "and what Alice found there."

We are proud to present the first Polish edition of this second story about Alice's adventures, published before the war, entitled "In the Mirror House." Illustrations and cover by Tenniel. Authorized translation by Janina Zawisza-Krasucka.
