Beskrivelse
For some minutes Alice stood without speaking, looking out in all directions over the country-- and a most curious country it was." Curled up in an armchair with her black kitten, Kitty, as Alice shares with it her ideas about a Looking-Glass House, she suddenly finds herself up on the chimney-piece, on the other side of the mirror.
In a room that looks much like her own but where everything is exactly reversed, Alice sees chessmen walking around. And as she steps out of the Looking-Glass House into the garden of live flowers, she is taken to the hill by the Red Queen.
" I declare it' s marked out just like a large chess-board!" Alice said at last. " There ought to be some men moving about somewhere-- and so there are! . . . Oh, what fun it is! How I wish I was one of them! I wouldn't mind being a Pawn, if only I might join-- though of course I should like to be a Queen, best."
As Alice embarks on an adventure, joining in as a pawn in the game and exploring this fantastical world of chessmen, Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, will she become a Queen?"
