Lewis, a well known author takes you into a world of storybook fantasy in this exciting book. People of all ages will enjoy this book as it has the storybook characters for the young and areas of deep thought for the old. Let us not leave the . middle generation out for they will also be thrilled with it. Four English children walk into another world through an old wardrobe and are plunged into a war between Aslan, a lion called Lord of the Woods and the White Witch, an evil being who has brought everlasting winter on Narnia until Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy lift the spell. But this is a bit more difficult than you think for Edmund is a traitor against Aslan. If winter is to be lifted all four children have to sit on thrones at the palace as kings and queens. But Edmund cannot because he once betrayed Aslan and it is against the Great Magic Rules. I am telling you far too much. Read this book and the others from the series Narnia Chronicles and you will be captivated by C.S. Lewis' unique form of writing. Read this book and you will see for yourself. - by Clare Davidson, Grade 8.

Since no one will accept the idea, he builds a balsa wood rafti^and with five other men, sails from South America. Drifting west with the Humbolt Current, ad- ventures pile up through the 101 day journey. Anyone who can last through the 228 pages would like this story, for it has history, adventure, humour, and some suspense. - by Barry Turner, Grade 8.
