A very real little girl named Alice follows a remarkable rabbit down a rabbit hole and steps through a looking-glass to come face to face with some of the strangest adventures and some of the oddest characters in all literature. The crusty Duchess, the Mad Hatter, the weeping Mock Turtle, the diabolical Queen of Hearts, the Cheshire-Cat, Tweedledum and Tweedledee--each one is more eccentric, and more entertaining, than the last. And all of them could only have come from the pen of Lewis Carroll, one of the few adults ever to enter successfully the children's world of make-believe--a wonderland where the impossible becomes possible, the unreal, real...where the heights of adventure are limited only by the depths of imagination. --back cover

I have long held that Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland is my all time favorite children's book, and I still believe. But Through the Looking Glass is the sequel and almost equivalent in how much I like it. It has totally different strengths and appeals, but they both demonstrate a love of language, fantasy, science, and mathematics held by their author. I know that many people eschew the whole idea of Alice in Wonderland because of the unfounded association of that with the drug culture, but the same cannot be accused of Through the Looking Glass.
It is a fanciful but mathematical stroll through a game of chess, and many quotes and characters have become famous in our society based on it. Lewis Carroll's ease and comfort with philosophy, mathematics, and LANGUAGE are truly encompassed in the work, and it's a lot of fun! I continue to love and …

Oh, what pleasurable memories! My older sister got a four LP set of Cyrill Richard's presentation of the old classic Alice in Wonderland for her sixth birthday in 1965, and that book has become my favorite of all time, ever since. This recording, although not identical (the actual performance of the Mock Turtle's song was the first obvious difference that I could clearly point out) brought warm fuzzy feelings and memories rushing back. The actual book, of course, was identical; it is, in fact, and unabridged reading of the actual book. But the accompanying music and depiction of songs was a bit different but close enough to still carry the overall feel.
Anyway, it was a wonderful romp down memory lane, and it still a great book and presentation.

Once loved, old classic children's book will always be an important addition to a day or longer. I can't believe that I first heard this when I was 4 1/2 :-). I remember listening to and loving it; of course, it was my sisters favorite book, too, and given what I now know about memory and memories, I'm not convinced that I, personally,, actually remember listening to it when I was 4 1/2, But I remember loving Alice and Alice in Wonderland. I am glad that I was able to this particular recording/Version which matches the old original for the most part; the narrator in the same and the music between chapters – or sides of the LPs – is the same, although some of the tunes given to the songs is different.
Still my favorite children's book…

Still my favorite book.
STILL has nothing to do with drugs or the drug culture.
I listened with Levi this time, and I guess he liked it, but it's probably NOT his favorite book. His loss!
