Join Peter, Susan, Edmund, and the adventurous Lucy as they step through the wardrobe and meet the noble lion, Aslan, the fearsome White Witch, and of course the lovable Mr. Tumnus. The inspiration for THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE first comr to C. S. Lewis when he was sixteen.

About the Contributor(s)
Clive Staples Lewis was born in 1898. Known as "Jack" by his friends, Lewis and his good friend J.R.R. Tolkien, the author of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, were part of a writer's club, The Inklings, who would meet at the local pub to discuss story ideas. Lewis's fascination with fairytales, myths, and ancient legends coupled with inspiration drawn from his childhood led him to write The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, one of the best-loved books of all time. Six further books in the immensely popular Chronicles of Narnia followed, and the final title, The Last Battle, received the Carnegie Award, one of the highest marks of excellence in children's literature.

Hiawyn Oram has been writing children's books for over 20 years, with over 60 books published to date, including picture books, poetry, plays, young fiction, story collections, and the book and lyrics for two musicals. He has won numerous awards and prizes for his work.
