It prompted a newfound appreciation for its predecessor when it was published. The mirror above the fireplace that is displayed at Hetton Lawn in Charlton Kings, Gloucestershire (a house that was owned by Alice Liddell's grandparents, and was regularly visited by Alice and Lewis Carroll) resembles the one drawn by John Tenniel and is cited as a possible inspiration for Carroll. Through the Looking-Glass includes such verses as ' Jabberwocky' and ' The Walrus and the Carpenter', and the episode involving Tweedledum and Tweedledee. There she finds that, just like a reflection, everything is reversed, including logic (for example, running helps one remain stationary, walking away from something brings one towards it, chessmen are alive, nursery rhyme characters exist, and so on).

Alice again enters a fantastical world, this time by climbing through a mirror into the world that she can see beyond it. While it doesn't all work like a well-oiled machine, kids are likely to take the film as they see it and simply enjoy the ride.Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There (also known as Alice Through the Looking-Glass or simply Through the Looking-Glass) is a novel published on 27 December 1871 (though indicated as 1872) by Lewis Carroll, a mathematics professor at Oxford University, and the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). To try and restore order Alice is pinballed around by Time, here personified by Sacha Baron Cohen. She has her own family dysfunctions to deal with as well, along with the Red and White queens (Anne Hathaway and a swollen-headed Helena Bonham Carter), whose childhood dispute threatens peace in the land.

Still, he's full to the brim with Mad Hatterish charm, looking to Alice (Mia Wasikowska overcoming her character's brattishness) to help him find out what happened to his family years before. He serves as producer, here, with British director James Bobin ( The Muppets) taking the reins in a plot that is more recognisably Hollywood, with chases and time-travel and Johnny Depp in another silly wig doing another silly voice.

Although this story has nothing to do with the events in Lewis Carroll's children's book, it retains the amusing absurdity and Tim Burton's gloriously garish production design from his 2010 version of Alice in Wonderland.
