Best Answer

The most famous poem in 'Through the Looking Glass' is 'Jabberwocky'. But 'The Walrus and the Carpenter' is also very well known and also first appeared in that book.

Lewis Carroll also wrote several other poems which feature in 'Through the Looking Glass'; untitled, there is a poem which begins 'In winter, when the fields are white,' one entitled 'I give thee all, I can no more', a parody of 'Rock a bye baby' called 'Hush-a-by lady', one that begins 'To the Looking-Glass world it was Alice that said', a poetic riddle with the first line 'First, the fish must be caught', and, at the very end of the book, an acrostic, in which the first letter of each line spells out Alice Liddell's name, beginning 'A boat, beneath a sunny sky'.

There are also several pre-exisiting nursery rhymes, which Carroll didn't write, but which inspired characters and incidents in the book; 'Tweedledum and Tweedledee', 'Humpty Dumpty', and 'The Lion and the Unicorn'.

No, Through the Looking Glass is a novel. It is the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and like that book, it tells the story of a young girl called Alice, who visits a remarkable place called Wonderland.
