I don't think I have any feelings different than what I stated in my review for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I always have a really hard time remembering what happens in what book, and that isn't any different having just read them both last week. Really striking in its language and imagery, and it's really a must-read for cultural literacy.

Reason read: Reading 1001, BAC, Portal Fantasy. I had not read this but still familiar with parts of it. This is another "daydream" of Alice. In this tale things are often backwards because they are seen through the mirror. It is a land of red and white queens, the walrus, Humpty Dumpty. I really liked the unbirthday. Very enjoyable story.
