This is the
second book of the Narnia collection and it is about Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy who were evacuated in the
Second World War. In the house they are staying in they go exploring and Lucy finds a new world through a wardrobe. There she meets a faun, called Tumnus, and when she goes back to try and convince the others that she is telling the truth they do not believe her. The
Second time she visits Narnia, Edmund follows but loses track of Lucy to find the White Witch, Queen of Narnia, who offers him some Turkish Delights. She promises him more if he brings all his brothers and sisters which he agrees to. When both of them return Edmund says it was just a game that they were playing to Peter and Susan which leave poor little Lucy very upset.
This time all the
children go to Narnia. The children have tea with two beavers – Mr and Mrs beaver who tell them about the ancient propecy. They also say that Aslan – the true king of Narnia is returning. In the mean time, Edmund betrays this siblings and leaves to find the White Witch but his absence is not notice for a long time. When finally everyone realises he is not there, it is too late. At the end, the four children do become the true rulers of Narnia and they fulfill the prophecy. This book is good and I give it a rating of 7/ 10. It is suitable for KS 2 children like me.
