Did you know? C.S. Lewis was a very good friend of J.R.R Tolkien. He got the idea for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe when four children stayed at his house. They were bored, so he told them stories.

The Chronicles of Narnia was first published in 1950. There are seven books in the series. the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in his best-known book: it was recently voted the best children's book of all time in Great Britain. The books follow the adventures of a group of children who enter a maginc wardrobe and fine themselves in Narnia. Here they discover a magical world created by the Lion Aslan. But it is in danger and the children must fight with the forces of evil to save Narnia.


The writers of the TV series Lost are fans of C.S. Lewis. They called one character Charlotte Staples Lewis!
