This book brings back memories of when I was a child and had it read to me. Eventually I read it myself. I have the series, but have only read this one.
Because it has so many references to Christ and it is a good read for all
Fantasy and adventures
Of all the books I have ever read, 2 stand out. THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE is one of those! The characters are believable; the plot never drags; it is just one of the BEST BOOKS EVER!
The other book mentioned above is THE HOBBIT, by JRR Tolkien,
This is my first foray into The Chronicles of Narnia. I’ve seen the movies (or at least some of them), but only once when they first came out, and don’t remember much past the first one. So overall, this will all be very new for me. This is yet another book I wish I’d read when I was younger; I have a feeling I would have liked it more as a kid. …
Superb classic – every child should read (and any adult who likes other worlds).
Read this years ago as a kid, and was happy to find the same joy when I reread it again. Sometime in the future, I’ll read it yet again….that is the hallmark of a good book to me. Something that grips ypu, and makes ypu want to revisit it again.
He is my fav.
This book is a classic for a reason! Read it younger and have read it again with my kids. The whole series is terrific!
Anything by CS Lewis is outstanding!
Four siblings on a rainy day play hide and seek. The youngest discovers an incredible secret in the back of the old wardrobe in their uncle’s house. After a fair amount of convincing and reconsidering, she and her three siblings set out to explore and are soon whisked into the land of Narnia. It is a well written fantasy story that is not too …
This was a much-loved book from childhood and I am so happy to have put the entire Chronicles of Narnia on my Kindle. If you have not read the Chronicles, please do. They are wholesome tales of the battle between good and evil and involve all sorts of fun characters like Reepicheep and Mr. Tumnus as well as Susan, Peter, Lucy, and Edmond, the …
A pure classic
One of the best ever!!!! Great as a kid and an adult!!!
Out of his entire Chronicles of Narnia series, this one is the best. The book defines and depicts the world of Narnia.
amzing book……….
An amazing book. It’s excellent for children, young adults and adults alike. An enthralling tale of siblings tumbling thru a clothes wardrobe and finding themselves in a world of speaking animals, a witch representing evil and a lion who represents good; specifically Jesus.
The book can be read just as a fairy tale that espouses wonderful values …
Loved the whole series. C.S. Lewis is a fantastic author. This is a beautiful story for children and adults also.
I am a retired elementary school librarian and it is a wonderful classic book.
An excellent story by a master of literature.
The book that started the series. Great anthromorcation of the characters to Bible. Read this one before the prequel of the Magician’s nephew.
