The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Picture Book (The Chronicles of Narnia) Book

CS Lewis's utterly enchanting The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe has long since taken its place in history as a classic, bewitching generations of children and adults since the 1950s. To take such a revered and treasured tale and to illustrate it in a new, dynamic way is no mean feat, but Christian Birmingham, one of the most talented and well respected artists of his generation, more than lives up to the challenge. With his use of strong, vivid colours combined with a breathtaking delicacy of touch, Birmingham has taken this carefully abridged version of the story to new heights, brilliantly capturing the true essence of Narnia and never once losing sight of the magic of it all.The perfect way to introduce new, young readers to the fantastical worldbehind the wardrobe, this striking and exciting picture book is set to become a classic in its own right. --Susan HarrisonRead More
