The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a fantasy written by C. S. Lewis, and is the best known of the ever-popular Chronicles of Narnia novels.

The story is set in Narnia, a land of talking animals and mythical creatures that is ruled by the evil White Witch.

Four children are relocated to a large, old country house following a wartime evacuation. The youngest, Lucy, visits Narnia three times via the magic of a wardrobe in a spare room. Lucy's three siblings are with her on her third visit to Narnia.

In Narnia, the siblings seem fit to fulfil an old prophecy and find themselves adventuring to save Narnia and their own lives.

The lion Aslan gives his life to save one of the children; he later rises from the dead, vanquishes the White Witch, and crowns the children Kings and Queens of Narnia.
