The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis captivates us all. We are thrown into an imaginary world with fauns, talking beavers, dwarfs, centaurs, and all manner of strange creatures. We quickly identify with Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy in various ways. With each chapter it becomes more obvious that Edmund is falling deeply into deception and pride is keeping him from turning his back on the snares of the White Witch.
Having just concluded chapter six, we have more questions than answers-----"Will the four children be able to escape Narnia?" ; "Why is Edmund lying again and again?" ; "What has happened to Mr. Tumnus?"; "What does the Professor know about Narnia?" The spiritual parallels are beginning to unfold. We eagerly await tomorrow and everyday thereafter as we read, ponder, discover, and contemplate how this story in an imaginary land can reflect so much truth.
Take a moment to enjoy our very own Narnia in fourth grade ......
We find a lamppost as soon as we enter Narnia.
Always winter and never Christmas!
Aslan is never far away.
Aslan's tent----
The home of Mr. and Mrs. Beaver
Waterfall.....
Cair Paravel
Winter turns to spring....
Turkish Delight......
The White Witch makes a surprise visit! She is definitely scary and ready to ensnare all of us into her false promises and empty words. Spells are cast and commands are made. We dare not disobey Queen Jadis.
