Four adventurous siblings Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie step through a wardrobe door and into the land of Narnia, a land frozen in eternal winter and enslaved by the power of the White Witch. But when almost all hope is lost, the return of the Great Lion, Aslan, signals a great change . . . and a great sacrifice. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is the second book in C. S. Lewis’s classic fantasy series, which has been drawing readers of all ages into a magical land with unforgettable characters for over sixty years.
940L Digory let out a scream.
"What's happened to Polly?" "Congratulate me, my dear boy," said Uncle Andrew, rubbing his hands. "My experiment has succeeded. The little girl's gone -- vanished -- right out of this world." When Digory and Polly discover Uncle Andrew's secret workshop, they are tricked into touching the magic rings which transport them to the Other Place. But even Uncle Andrew doesn't realise the wonders that await them -- for here is the gateway to the Land of Narnia and the beginning of many wonderful adventures there! 790L "No school for two whole weeks! (Yeah!) I can forget ALL about lessons (and irritating things like Marcus Meldrew). And concentrate on good stuff like: inventing new ways to annoy my sister Delia. (So many). Band practice for DOGZOMBIES (with my mate Derek). Watching TV and eating caramel wafers. Eating caramel wafers and watching TV. Excellent.
"Unfortunately a couple of small problems called the dentist and my big weirdo sister, Delia, seem to be getting in the way of my BRILLIANT plans ..." 610L When my teacher Mr Fullerman doesn't have his BEADY EYES on me, I like to draw pictures and write stories about stuff, like when we had the worst holiday ever (camping sucks) and when my parents came to school for parents' evening (groan). And about how Marcus Meldrew is the most annoying boy in the world and how I don't want to sit next to him in class. All I want to do is get tickets to see the best band ever DUDE3 when they come to town. It's not easy when I'm up against Delia, my weirdo big sister, and all my plans seem to get me into MAJOR TROUBLE... again.
650L Seeing Delia without her sunglasses on is a Big shock, but that's nothing compared with the surprise Dad has in store for me with his new-found fitness regime.
Meanwhile, Derek and I keep practising in Dogzombies-you never know, we might even get to play another gig? But right now, I'm still wondering how Amy Porter managed to talk me into auditioning for the School Play. While Marcus Meldrew is being extra smug because he's only gone and got the lead role . . . 670L It's really cold outside and we're hoping it's going to snow. Yeah! Derek and I could make a snow Rooster and have a snowball fight (look out, Delia!).
Granny Mavis has started to knit me a new winter jumper but by the looks of things I'm not sure it's going to fit... 620L Exciting News! Mr Fullerman announces that class 5F are going on an 'Activity Break'! Which should be fun. As long as I don't get stuck in a group with anyone who snores or worse still with ...Marcus Meldrew.
Delia is already threatening to paint my room funny colours while I'm away. Which is annoying. I just hope the only surprise I have when I get home is the new pet that I hear Mum and Dad talking about. Because I've always wanted a pet! 670L Back to school, but it's not all bad. We're entering Rooster in a dog show, the School Disco and my birthday are coming up, so this term's going to be amazing! Mostly because Delia's not invited to any of these. There's only one small problem with my birthday: Granny Mavis says she's going to cook...uh oh!
620L Will the chilling prophecy and the ultimate battle against Solaris come true? Nothing could have prepared Sam for this terrifying new life as one of the last 13 Dreamers. From New York to Egypt, to Italy—the search for the last 13 will take Sam across the globe. He cannot do it alone, but who can he really trust? 13 books. 13 nightmares. One destiny. Are you one of them?
