The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of seven
fantasy novels for children written by
C. S. Lewis. It is considered a classic of
children's literature and is the author's best-known work, having sold over 120 million copies in 41 languages. Written by Lewis between 1949 and 1954 and illustrated by
Pauline Baynes,
The Chronicles of Narnia have been adapted several times, complete or in part, for radio, television,
stage, and
cinema. In addition to numerous traditional
Christian themes, the series borrows characters and ideas from
Greek and
Roman mythology, as well as from traditional
British and
Irish fairy tales.
The Chronicles of Narnia present the adventures of children who play central roles in the unfolding history of the
fictional realm of
Narnia, a place where
animals talk,
magic is common, and
good battles
evil. Each of the books (with the exception of
The Horse and His Boy) features as its
protagonists children from our world who are
magically transported to Narnia, where they are called upon to help the
Lion Aslan handle a crisis in the world of Narnia.
Growing up I loved this series of books. My father (R.I.P.) read them to me religiously and they've stuck with me so much that I'm now reading them to my children.
