A Classic Journey of the Imagination

A simple game of hide-and-seek turns into a thrilling and dangerous adventure in this beloved tale in C.S. Lewis' classic The Chronicles of Narnia series.

Through the wardrobe, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy enter the mystical land of Narnia, where only the great Lion, Aslan, can conquer the dark magic of the White Witch and restore beauty and peace to a land threatened with eternal winter.

About the Author: Clive Staples Lewis, was born in Belfast, Ireland, in 1898. As a child, he was fascinated by the fairy tales, myths, and ancient legends recounted to him by his Irish nurse. The image of a faun carrying parcels and an umbrella in a snowy wood came to him when he was sixteen. Many years later, the faun was joined by an evil queen and a magnificent lion. Their story became The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe. Six further Chronicles of Narnia followed, and the final title, The Last Battle, was awarded the United Kingdom's prestigious Carnegie Award.

Lewis was Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Magdalen College, Oxford, and later was Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, where he remained until his death in 1963. He wrote numerous books of literary criticism and on Christianity, the best-knowing being The Screwtape Letters, as well as four novels for adults. The seven books of The Chronicles of Narnia were his only works for children.
