The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe cover

A magical adventure awaits in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, where four siblings discover a frozen land and battle against dark forces.

In The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, readers are invited to open a door and step into a magical world filled with wonder and adventure. This beloved tale follows the journey of four siblings—Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie—who discover a wardrobe that leads them to Narnia, a land trapped in an endless winter under the cruel rule of the White Witch. As they navigate the enchanting yet perilous landscape, they encounter mystical creatures and face daunting challenges, all while uncovering their own destinies.

The story takes a pivotal turn with the arrival of Aslan, the Great Lion, whose presence brings hope and the promise of change. As the siblings rally to fight against the oppressive forces of the White Witch, they learn valuable lessons about bravery, sacrifice, and the power of love. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is not just a tale of fantasy; it delves into themes of good versus evil, redemption, and the importance of family bonds.

This beautifully illustrated paperback edition features the original artwork by Pauline Baynes, enhancing the reading experience for both new and longtime fans. As the second book in C. S. Lewis's enduring series, it stands alone yet invites readers to delve deeper into the Narnian realm with other titles, such as The Horse and His Boy. Whether revisiting or discovering this magical tale for the first time, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe promises to captivate hearts and imaginations alike.
