Back through the wardrobe we go, boys and girls! It's time for another Narnia story! Out of all the main-line Narnia stories (which is pretty much all of them except for 'The Magician's Nephew' and 'The Horse and His Boy'), this one is probably the best.

The Aslan Problem
This is a little follow-up to yesterday's book review. You don't need to have read that one for this. But I'd sure appreciate it! I'm not desperate, why do you ask?

Yet, for some reason, I've never actually read any of his works. I've seen all the Narnia movies, but that was all… Continue reading The Magician’s Nephew: Narnia’s First Day. Literally.
