Witch, enchantment and magic where the 3 words that influenced me to choose the book that turned out to be The Chronicals of Narnia series 2nd book, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. This adventurous, fantasy book was written by C. S Lewis in 1950 making it 67 years old.

The story takes place is a magical land called Narnia. Unfortunately the evil snow queen has put a curse over the land causing it to be winter forever.

It was the longest and most descriptive part of the book. I mainly enjoyed this book because it has an exciting story line and it never a boring chapter. I liked all the different characters and how well the author described the land. All the children had similar personalities but they all made different decisions and added to the story. I didn’t like how the ending and story were predictable and s like every other fantasy book that I have read. My favourite paragraph of the book is “ And that is the very end of the adventure of the wardrobe. But if the Professor was right it was only the beginning of the adventures of Narnia,” because it wraps up the book and makes you want to read the next one. I would give this book because a 7/ 10 because the story was really exciting and the setting was really well described. The predictable story line brought the rating down. Anyone who likes a lot adventure and fantasy in their stories show definitely read this book.

Edmund's plunge into the Witch's administration starts amid his mad utilization of the enchantment Turkish Delight. Since this is the charmed Turkish Delight, Edmund can't be considered responsible for his intemperance as though he were overindulging in standard treat. The genuine sin happens when Edmund permits himself to focus on the Turkish Delight long after he leaves the Witch. Edmund's use of the Turkish Delight might likewise be a reference to the transgression of Adam and Eve, when they ate from the Tree of Knowledge.…

    Based on the what was learned about trust in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, trust is the most basic trait needed in everyday life. Without it, things cannot set into motion. Aslan is portrayed as a great ruler of Narnia, kind and merciful, just as lions were known to be in medieval folklore. He is trusted by the inhabitants of Narnia to lead them out of the Witch’s evil rule. The fact that C.S. Lewis was expressing his opinions and showing the value of trust in the story through the characters is shown in my interpretation of the several events in the…

    The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, is a film adaptation of the beloved book by C.S Lewis. While reading a book, one is forced to make up an entire world in their heads.

There is no way around these choices because it is what we are forced to see. The imagined world is shattered and replaced with a world that one might not agree with.…
