The story:
I wish I could get through into looking-glass house, Alice said. Lets pretend that the glass has gone soft and . . . Why, I do believe it has! Its turning into a kind of cloud!
A moment later Alice is inside the looking-glass world. There she finds herself part of a great game of chess, travelling through forests and jumping across brooks. The chess pieces talk and argue with her, give orders and repeat poems . . .
It is the strangest dream that anyone ever had . . .
