"A moment later Lucy was standing in the middle of a wood with snow under her feet and snowflakes falling through the air."
When Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are sent to stay with a kind professor who lives in the country, they can hardly imagine the extraordinary adventure that awaits them.
It all begins when the children explore the professor's rambling old house. When they come across a room with an old wardrobe in the corner, Lucy opens the door and gets inside it. To her amazement, she suddenly finds herself standing in a wood, with snowflakes falling though the air. Lucy has found Narnia, a magical land of fauns and centaurs, nymphs and talking animals - and the beautiful but evil White Witch, who has held the country in eternal winter for a hundred years.
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe has enchanted readers for over sixty years and now will delight younger children as a picture book. With Christian Birmingham's illustrations providing an exquisite setting for the carefully abridged text, it is set to become a classic in its own right.
