THE MAGICIAN'S NEPHEW
by C.S. LEWIS
We are reading the first book in the Chronicles of Narnia.  There are 7 books in this series.  We chose this series because all the children are interested in magic and are intrigued by the idea of talking animals.  Though we plan to finish The Magician's Nephew within the next  week, we will not finish the entire series for quite some time.  Please feel free to read this book with us. Check below for the chapter we are beginning now.  You can read more about C.S. Lewis on our AUTHORS page.  Also, check out some neat links on our LINKS page.
The Synopsis written on the back of The Magician's Nephew.

The secret passage to the house next door leads to a fascinating adventure.  NARNIA...where the woods are thick and cool, where Talking Beasts are called to life...a new world where the adventure begins. 
Digory and Polly meet and become friends one cold, wet summer in London.  Their lives burst into adventure when Digory's Uncle Andrew, who thinks he is a magician, sends them hurtling to...somewhere else.  They find their way to Narnia, newborn from the Lion's song, and encounter the evil sorceress Jadis, before they finally return home. 
Enter this enchanted world countless times in THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA.  There are seven books in all:

The Magician's Nephew
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
The Horse and His Boy
Prince Caspian
The Voyage of the
Dawn Treader
The Silver Chair
The Last Battle
