This book was OK. It was fun, mythical and slightly gory.

The book kept me guessing as it moved through the story. I loved the exciting and mystery characters and the description of Narnia made me feel like I was there. I would really recommend it to others.

I liked it because I like when Edmund met the white witch in Narnia. I LOVE Aslan and was so excited when he came into the book

It was really good because you get to see a big battle. My favourite part was when Peter fought the wolf.

Some of the language was a bit old fashioned but it was okay because I had seen the movie already.

The witch turned the world into winter and Aslan turned it back to Spring with the help of 4 children.

I like The lion the witch and the wardrobe because it was very exciting and the characters were very brave.I like the fact that the children have met Santa, a Faun,a talking beaver and a lion who was king of Narnia he comes and goes a lot.I like the lion because when he dies he comes to life again.

This is the first novel I can remember my father reading to me as I lay snuggled up in bed and here I am, many years later, still captivated by the story. This timeless tale of love and redemption sweeps me away and I would recommend it to everyone who loves stories of adventure, friendship and the triumph of good over evil.

I would recommend this book to everybody.

The book is fiction. I like Lucy the best because she found Narnia first. It interests me because sometimes you really want to know what happens next. I would recommend 7 or 8.

It is about 4 children who travel through a wardrobe to the land of Narnia. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to children age 9yrs upwards.

i absolutely loved this fun book. it was so adventurous and loving

07 Sep 2022

I enjoyed reading this book because I loved the pictures and it helped me imagine and made me want to go to Narnia! My favourite character was Lucy because she is a sweet girl and adventurous. The setting was in a magical land and forest which was beautiful and covered in snow. I would recommend this book to readers aged 7 and above because the white witch is a little scarey!

01 Sep 2022

It can be scary and a bit confusing but I really like it!

It's a really good book, for kids and young teenagers. It's about 4 children who go into a wardrobe and find a magical place. Have alot of adventures and meet some very colourful characters.

26 Aug 2022

I loved this as a movie so was intrigued to read the book.

23 Aug 2022

I liked Lucy the most because she never gave up on showing her siblings that Narnia is real. It interested me because the book tells us not to trust any stranger you see for the first time in your life. I would recommend this book to ages 7-10 years
