Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy step through an old wardrobe into the mysterious land of Narnia. There, they meet Aslan, the Great Lion, and together they set off to rescue Narnia from the evil White Witch, who has cast a spell over the land. But, as the children soon learn, Narnia is a magical place, and this will be no ordinary battle. Deborah Maze's rich, detailed paintings, inspired by the original novels, bring the creatures and land of Narnia to life in this fourth exciting title in the World of Narnia Picture Book series.
An excellent adaptation for the final chapters of the Lion the Witch and The Wardrobe. My 5 year old carries the book around because of the beautiful illustrations.
Excellent illustrations, yet a bit graphic for younger viewe

I liked the way the story is condensed for young readers. This volume was a bit wordier than the preceding ones, however. Also, a couple of the illustrations were particularly graphic for young viewers - particularly the two pages covering the battle scene. It scared my 4 year old whom I was excited to introduce to Narnia and particularly Aslan. This volume also leaves one whetted for subsequent stories of the kings and queens of Cair Paravel. I eagerly await more editions in the "Deborah Maze" series.
