The Narnia Chronicles, first published in 1950, have been and remain some of the most enduringly popular books ever published. The best known, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, has been translated into 29 languages! The year 2000 marks the 50th anniversary of first publication of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe introduced readers to the wonders and enchantment of Narnia when it was first published almost fifty years ago. Since then, the hearts and imaginations of millions of readers have been caputured by the story of Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy, who step through a magic wardrobe into Narnia, once the peaceful land of Talking Beasts, dwarfs, giants and fauns, but now frozen into eternal winter by the evil White Witch.The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe has enchanted readers for almost fifty years and now, for the first time, will delight younger children as a picture book. With Christian Birmingham's illustrations providing an exquisite setting for the carefully abridged text, it is set to become a classic in its own right.
Four English children find their way through the back of a wardrobe into the magic land of Narnia & assist Aslan, the golden lion, to triumph over the White Witch.
