"Like the `Rings' cycle... the seven Narnia books have a long and loyal following."

"Forget Simba. There's a new lion in the Magic Kingdom... Long before J.K. Rowling dreamed up Harry Potter, Lewis was busy with his seven book series."

Synopsis
Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie are sent to live with their reclusive Uncle in his mysterious country home. Lucy soon discovers a wardrobe that hides a doorway into the magical world of Narnia. Narnia was once a peaceful land of talking beasts, dwarfs, giants, and fauns. But an evil spell is cast on Narnia and it is now ruled by the White Witch, who has transformed it into a frozen place, where it is ?always winter, but never Christmas.? To the creatures of Narnia, the children now represent hope. Led by the powerful lion Aslan, the children must defeat the White Witch and free all of Narnia from her icy spell.

Customer Reviews

In a class of it's own
I've been reading this book since l was 11,(39 years ago) and had my first copy confiscated at School, for reading it in a maths lesson.
For those that don't know, Aslan is portrayed as Jesus Christ, and the children, the 4 disciples. It is a quaint loving caring, book, you could leave your child with, this or any of the other narnia series and not have to worry about them picking up bad habbits or bad launguage.
Even to taking candy from strangers.I have named all of my dogs after the charectors in Narnia,Even to CS, we. My Dane at present is called
Mr Tumnus. It's one of those books, when you feel off colour as an adult, its lovely to get in bed with and read again.
It is in mty mind a compulsary book for every child to read, and if the child picks anything up about the stories, it has to be good. Narnia isnt a book it's an adventure, and a growing up story.
It shows love and respect to animals, and more to the point adults. If per chance you have not read this book as an adult you must read it.

My favoruite childhood book
This book sparked the imagination of hundreds of children and children's writers. It was the book that made me want to be a writer and a huge influence over the plot of my novel Lightsleep - which is available on this site.

Nothing will ever compare to my excitement, aged seven, when Lucy finds herself in Narnia after walking through the wardrobe. A classic moment in children's literature.
