One of the best fairy tales and adventure stories, the action revolves around four children who enter an enchanting new world—a world of talking animals, centaurs, giants, and other unusual creatures. Controlled by an evil witch, who deceives one of the children, the land never experiences spring, only winter.
While looking for a friend taken by the witch, the children are found by beavers and brought to Aslan, the king of the wood. The children must flee from wolves and are given powerful gifts only to be used in war. A time that seems to be approaching.
The book has sold millions of copies, and people of all ages have read it worldwide. My mother read it to me when I was in middle school, and I have read it twice as an adult.
Six other books about Narnia make up The Chronicles of Narnia, the most well-known of the storyteller C.S. Lewis’s books.
The wardrobe, the temptation of the witch, the children’s journey, Peter’s battle against the wolf, Aslan, and the land of Narnia make the reader want to live with honor and courage.
