"Nothing happens the same way twice." The quote of my childhood life. Hahaha. :)
I was already falling away from Christianity by the time I read the Narnia series as a child, although I did enjoy them for the story.

A bit hard to get Josie’s read on this one, but Jerrett was very involved throughout. His biggest takeaways were that the Witch liked her sin, and that Aslan being kicked and jeered at caused him to be really sad.
We were able to have several conversations about Jesus, and I’m looking forward to continuing this series together to see what else is revealed for their hearts.

This is way more fantasy coded than the previous book. It has a clear objective in the storyline what makes for a wonderful children’s story.
I do find it funny that if you compare it with the movie the characters have way more depth in them. It one of the view examples when the movie has more details than the book has.

So you think this is a "story for children?" Think again. It can awaken your spirits as you read about the adventures of four children, Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy, as they go into a wardrobe only to find the new world, Narnia. They are staying with an older professor outside of London during WWII.
The story is a big part of Patti Callahan's book, "Once Upon A Wardrobe" where an 8 year old boy, George, wants to know where Narnia came from. He has just read "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" and asks his older sister, Megs, to inquire from the famous professor and author at Oxford, CS Lewis, to get the scoop. He figures she can do this for him as that's where she attends college. The young brother has cancer and she agrees as she loves him dearly. Both books are highly recommended but it helps to read "The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" first. It's a super easy read and may also be enjoyed by the young ones.
Enjoy the ride.
