    Lewis Carroll was the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-1898), English author, mathematician, and photographer. One of eleven children of a scholarly country parson, he studied mathematics at Oxford, obtained a university post, and then was ordained as a deacon but found true success with his masterpiece, Alice's Adventures Under Ground, now known as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which originated as a story told to a young friend, Alice Liddell, during a boating trip on the Thames.

    Harlan Ellison, a multiple-award-winning author, has narrated numerous audiobooks, both of his own writing and others, including books by Orson Scott Card, Arthur C. Clarke, Jack Williamson, and Terry Pratchett. His readings have won two "Listen Up" Awards and the Audie® Award in 1999 for Best Solo Narration.

    In 1865, Lewis Carroll won the hearts of children around the world with a wondrous story of a disappearing cat, a mad tea party, and a croquet-playing Queen of Hearts. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland quickly became a beloved classic of children's literature, and fans wrote thousands of letters to Lewis Carroll asking him to write a sequel to this magical book. The result was Through the Looking Glass, a timeless tale that has captivated generations with its unforgettable blend of laughter, magic and mischief. On a snowy winter day when it's too cold to play outside, Alice begins a game of make-believe inside her house. But make-believe soon becomes real when Alice steps through a mirror—and into another world! To find her way back to her world, Alice needs the help of Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and the Jabberwocky.
