I wanted to highlight the whole book. The imagery of the Jesus and the Kingdom of God makes your heart happy while reading.

It’s my goal to have read/listened to all the Chronicles of Narnia books sometime this year. I can’t believe it has taken me this long to read them. I will probably listen to the rest like I did this one because it was so fun. This story is so heartfelt and pure. I know there’s some debate over the order which you should read these books but since this is the origin story, I did it first. I’m excited for the rest!

Also, Kenneth Branagh did a great job on this audiobook.

I read this one out loud to my children years ago. They hung on every word.
