In the blink of an eye, their lives are changed forever” But soon Edmund and then Peter and Susan discover the Magic and meet Aslan, the Great Lion, for themselves. At first, no one believes her when she tells of her adventures in the land of Narnia. Lucy is the first to find the secret of the wardrobe in the professor’s mysterious old house. “Narnia… the land beyond the wardrobe, the secret country known only to Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy…the place where the adventure begins. I feel the censorship of this story hides imagination and friends that readers will never find anywhere else. Of the banned books over the years, I desperately hate the fact that this is one of them. Underneath the deeper, allegorical side to this novel, there lies a beautiful fantasy story that will literally open up worlds for children. The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe is one of those times. Sometimes, it hurts my heart when a book is challenged or banned.
