Description

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is the second book in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia, a series that has become part of the canon of classic literature, drawing readers of all ages into a magical land with unforgettable characters for over seventy-five years. 

Four adventurers step through a wardrobe door and into the land of Narnia, a land enslaved by the power of the White Witch. But when almost all hope is lost, the return of the Great Lion, Aslan, signals a great change . . . and a great sacrifice.

This is a stand-alone read, but if you would like to explore more of the Narnian realm, pick up The Horse and His Boy, the third book in The Chronicles of Narnia.

    I love this book! The whole series is awesome! The Magician’s Nephew is the book that gives some context to where the Witch comes from and where Aslan comes from and how the Lamp-post in the forest came to be, but you don‘t have to read it before this book.
  • Books are adventures

    It’s really good! My favorite character is Aslan. As a kid, I always liked adventures. Every book is like an adventure for me. Books can take you anywhere you want to go.

    I don’t agree with the age because my daughter is in first grade and she loves it. It should be rated for first and up.

    It is a classic work of literature. We read this one in school, then watched the movie. Both are incredible, and have a very Christian overall feeling to them. It is a very good lesson in courage.

    I have both the hardbound original editions of the Narnia books with Pauline Baynes fun illustrations as well as audiobooks read by great British actors and actresses! Admittedly I love the audiobooks best! And I will often listen to them in the car! It’s too bad that they haven’t made movies out of some of what I consider to be the best books! I enjoyed the book, the horse and his boy, and I enjoyed the last book, the last battle. The very first one that CS Lewis wrote after he wrote the lion the witch and the wardrobe— The magicians nephew— is very good to read as it establishes how Narnia began and where the white witch came from.

    I read this book in class and it is fantastic! The words and figurative language that C. S. Lewis is lovely. If you like fantasy, this book is for you!

    I did a play of Narnia and I was Lucy. Doors and Windows, Deep Magic, and Field of Flowers. Any time I sing one of those I wanna cry, but when I saw this book, not only did I want to cry, but I did. If anyone who did 2019’s Narnia at Act One, no matter what cast but especially my fellow cast 2 friends, you know how I feel. -Rosey
