Oh it was always "Through the Looking Glass" much preferred it to adventures in Wonderland. First there was a kitten, secondly I knew there was something odd about mirrors, my grandmother had one with a flaw in it that made your face go funny, so it was easy to imagine another world. And the characters, I was always in love with the White Knight (and some of the men I got involved with later were as useless as he was!) and then there was the White Queen and the jam- "Jam today and jam yesterday but never jam today!" Trying to think impossible things before breakfast. There was a real logic to the Looking Glass world as well, it seemed perfectly feasible that you would only get somewhere by walking away from it! I was a contrary child! I need a new copy of TTLG the cover has fallen off mine and pages are escaping. I still love to read it.
