Book Description:
One of the most highly respected fantasy novels ever written, THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE can be seen as both an exciting children's adventure story and an allegory about faith.
The story begins when the Pevensie siblings (Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy) escape the dangers of World War II-era London by relocating to the country home of family friend Professor Kirke. One day, while playing hide-and-seek, Lucy hides in an old wardrobe and finds herself transported to the world of Narnia, a magical land frozen in eternal winter by the evil White Witch. ith the help of her siblings, Lucy sets forth to free Narnia from the White Witch's reign by bringing about the return of Narnia's guardian, Aslan the lion, a quest impeded by a shocking betrayal.

Catherine M. (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (the first book in the Narnia Series) is a great book. I first read it, along with the other six books in the series, when I was in grade school and I was completely entranced. I highly recommend this book. It is especially appropriate reading for grammar school children.
Hmm, how can anyone even attempt to compare Lewis to Tolkien? I read it out of curiousity. I would not recommend it, even for kids...
