Alice in Wonderland the Sequel
Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There
Through the Looking-Glass was published six years following Alice's Adventures Underground. Lewis Carroll encountered another Alice in his travels throughout Europe and had a conversation with her about how she viewed herself in a mirror. This event led to the creation of the sequel to Alice in Wonderland.

This sequel includes many of the original characters and introduces new ones as well.
Like the original, the sequel also has many adaptations into other forms of entertainment such as film, television, stage performances, and music.
Through the Looking-Glass also became serialized into a series of not only novels, but graphic novels as well. These were written by Frank Beddor. Three have been published so far as of the present date.
