Publisher's Summary

An Excellent Narration of A Really Fun Children's Story
I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook. The narrator. Miriam Margolyes, is truly excellent. I read along while listening. Miss Margolyes' narration added vastly to this reading and listening experience. As for the story itself, it is very clever and witty. I think that portions of this story would make an excellent bedtime story for a child. As the story centers around a child "Alice" and kittens, it might prove somewhat interesting to a little girl. As for myself, as an older person, I enjoyed slowly working my way through the story and found it quite enjoyable. I hope to read it to grandchildren and grand nieces and nephews. Thank You...

Great narration but story not as good as the first
Since I read Alice's Adventures In Wonderland last year and really enjoyed it I thought I'd read the follow up. I also enjoyed the film that came out in 2016 but aside from sharing some characters the book was nothing like the film. Also despite being a sequel this felt much more like a prequel as Alice didn't acknowledge having met some of the characters before. I didn't enjoy as much as Alice's Adventures In Wonderland but it was still good, albeit weird. The narration on this however, is excellent!

Through the Looking Glass
At times hard to follow in audiobook format without being able to reread sections. Definitely moments and scenes of bizzarre wonderful brilliance. Great voice for each of the characters.
