Although this book lays the foundation for all the Narnia series it is often overlooked. In the attention catching style of C S Lewis it introduce the fantastic and magical element that pervades the series. Without this book as background the reader of the other Narnia books starts without understanding g Aslan , talking g trees and animals and the core values of Narnia. The book is easy to and well worth reading. read
