Through the Looking Glass

By: Lewis Carroll

Narrated by: Davina Porter

Lewis Carroll followed up his classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland with the equally wondrous sequel Through the Looking Glass, a timeless tale that imaginatively blends laughter, mischief, and magic. The story begins on a cold, snowy day, when Alice must stay inside. She decides to play a game of make-believe, but the game becomes real when Alice steps through a mirror - and into another world! Desperate to return to her real life, Alice faces a series of bizarre adventures and unforgettable characters, including Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, and the Jabberwocky. This astonishing presentation of Through the Looking Glass transports us into Carroll's - and Alice's - frightfully funny fantasy world, delighting children of all ages.

Critic reviews

"Flo Gibson gives a fine rendition of this literary classic." (Media Review)

It doesn’t sound like Davina Porter

The narration was excellent! I will say, it though me off that it doesn’t sound like Davina Porter. I listened to Alice in Wonderland narrated by Davina Porter just before I listened to this Recorded Books version of Through the Looking Glass, and even though it also says that Davina Porter is the narrator, there is a strong difference between the two narrations.

Not as good as the first.

It’s interesting to see how Disney and many other works have picked out which stories from which books to include.
