Rating:  Summary: A book you should read again and again Review: I read this book many years ago borrowed from one of my friends.Since then I was wondering if I can own one of them.(I read the version that separated the seven storys into seven indevidual books.)And now we are so lucky that the whole story line finally combined together,and we can read it all at once.
You can say that there are many different storys in this book,but if you read them together,it is really a big interesting and facinating story.You won't get confused if you start with any part of these seven storys,but I swear that you won't miss any of them whenever you read the first paragraph, even the first sentence.
You can't forgive yourself if you only borrow it from others,and it's also a pity if you don't have one of your own.Because you surely will read it again and again.
Rating:  Summary: The classic series which everyone loves. Review: These books are absolutely fantastic. I've read this series four times in my life and have grown up loving it. The chronicles tell the story of the magical land Narnia which is entranced in many different ways. The original first book in the series was 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe', but if you want to read it in order you should read 'The Magicians Nephew' first. These books capture the heart and take you into many adventures featuring many loveable characters in mysterious lands. You won't find a better series than this. I rate this series with 'The Lord of the Rings'. C.S. Lewis really was a genius. A must for anyone
Rating:  Summary: The Very Best Books¿ EVER!!!!! Review: These books are a must for all readers. they are inchanting from the first book, "The Magicians Nephew" through "The Last Battle!"
Rating:  Summary: A treasure worth finding Review: These books are well beyond the confines of words. I have personally read all of them at least once a year since the age of 10 and I'm now 27. They are so richly full of emotion that certain scenes from different books bring a tear just by thinking about them. After having read them over 20 times, I find them just as captivating as the first and also gain new wisdom and insight into life with each new read. These are a must have on anybody's list!
Rating:  Summary: As long as there is a Narnia, the is hope for the future. Review: A small excerpt was taken from "The Magician's Nephew" and placed in a gigantic collection of fanstasy stories contained within a book called 'East of the Sun, West of the Moon'. I read this book when I was in the second grade of grammar school, and I payed close attention to the story of two children who were magically swept away into a deserted city. I remember that the city was colored red due to a dying sun. This was my first glimpse of a world far from my own, the first fantasy/science fiction book, and not my last. The Chronicals of Narnia are a part of the endless fanstasy of childhood, as enduring as Star Wars, as hip as the latest top ten. Moreover, these stories credit children with an intellegence. As long as there is a Narnia (pronounced Naw-nia, please) there is hope for the future
Rating:  Summary: The Chronicles of Narnia Get an A+ Review: Have you ever owned a series of books that has been read and reread, dogeared, and enjoyed by the entire family?
The enchantment with this series is that anyone can enjoy it. A child will see it as a fun-filled fantasy...and it's also a very popular series to use for book reports.
Adults will find the books not only interesting but also full of Christian beliefs and perspectives.
This is a series parents can read to their children, in addition, and use for discussion.
If you don't already have this series...believe me...you not only want it, you need it!
Rating:  Summary: Personification and Narnia Review: C.S. Lewis uses personification in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe to help children follow themes and pick out the individuality of the characters. I admire C.S. Lewis' life and his creative writing style. He is able to capture the minds of readers young and old. - J. Todd, BDH
Rating:  Summary: A must-have collection for children and above Review: Beautifully told tales all set in the same magical parallel universe. You'll find evil witches, heroic talking mice, human children, adventure and gentle moralizing. Good triumphs over evil. I devoured them as a youngster (good for boys OR girls!) and wholeheartedly believe that The Voyage of the Dawn Treader to be the best of the bunch. Any adult with a bit of Christian religious education will recognize Aslan the Lion as Father/Son/Holy Ghost, which makes these books a staple item for adult Sunday school reading and discussion. The reader's level of theism will definitely affect enjoyment -- any of you out there who are violently anti-religious should probably give these a skip. However, for the rest of the reading universe, this collection is one of the true classics of children's literature and therefore not to be missed
Rating:  Summary: Perfect Reading For Every Age Review: The Chronicles of Narnia are perfect for any age person. For the very young it is simply a wonder
filled adventure of magic and fantasy. For the more mature reader it becomes an analogy for life
and can even be used to show correlations with the bible. However it never looses it's ability to
transport you to a wonderful world where the
animals talk and the Lion is truly King of the Beasts
Rating:  Summary: Great fun! Good drama! Family story for kids of all ages. Review: One of the best collections of stories I have ever read.Without intending to, Lewis paints a vivid picture of Christianliving, and Christ's kingdom. It's fun, dramatic reading that inspires, invites, and uplifts. I have read it twice, and plan to read it again (and I'm 24!). I recommend it especially for family reading time (if you have that). Buy it, read it, enjoy it repeatedly!
