"Quality story."
How I did it: I read this story whenever I had a few minutes. For a few sessions I sunk into it for 2 hours or so. I like to read quite slowly and allow myself to soak into the story.
Lessons & tips: 1. Obtain a copy from the library.
2. Read it prior to going to sleep each night.

Lion the witch and the wardrobe

The book was good. I had watched the movie first and I must say that the book and movie are near identical if not most assuredly!
Good Book!

This is a good book! I love C.S. Lewis! You should DEFINITELY not just stick with watching the movie. The movie was good, but didn’t do the book justice. THIS IS WORTH DOING!!

I loved this whole series as a kid and even still occasionally read it now as an adult if I’m short of something to read.

I have read a lot of books that are much better, even in this genre.
Not just a kid's book

While I was sitting on the porch reading this book, the pizza we delivered arrived. The pizza delivery guy was THRILLED to find someone else reading this book, as he had just finished it. He went on to explain to me something about the author – telling me CS Lewis was a “Christian Apologist”, who had at one time been an athiest – who later changed his mind. He then wrote about his new views – sometimes clearly, and sometimes – like in this book – a little more veiled. Alot of the book is that way. The delivery guy told me all about the symbols in the book that he said were deliberate references to Christ and Christianity. Made it even more interesting to read…

I only read it after I saw the film, and yes, it’s good.
I never read this book as a child . . .

And I’m SO glad I finally read it as an adult. It’s absolutely lovely! And for anyone who might be avoiding because you’ve heard it’s over-the-top in terms of Christian symbology (that’s why I’d been avoiding it for years) . . . don’t worry! Yes, there’s symbology, but no more than you’d find in any fantasy book. I would say that anyone who is Christian can read and interpret it in that vein, and if you’re not Christian, you’ll interpret it in different ways.
It’s a wonderful book – it took me back to the way I used to feel when reading favourite books as a child. I’d highly recommend it. I’m working my way through the rest of the Narnia books now, as well.
