"Through the Looking-Glass" is a novel by Lewis Carroll, published in 1871, and is the sequel to "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland."

The book makes use of chess motifs and imagery, with the story divided into square fields divided by brooks or streams. The book has been adapted into various films, TV shows, and plays. A missing scene involving a "wasp in a wig" was suppressed and later discovered in 1974. The book is considered a mirror image of its predecessor, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
