Classic children's tale whose companion books/rest of series is a good read for the more mature

I first read this as a kid, before I knew it was a Christian allegory. Read as just a kid's adventure story, it was great! Later in retrospect it seemed sort of strange, but it is still a pretty good story.

A rich and beautiful allegory, filled with so many Essential (in the sense of original, ancient) symbols that it surpasses the claims of being "a Christian tale." Lewis, a master of philosophical literature of all kinds, draws on myriad sources to tell a tale of courage, discovery, loyalty, sacrifice, and good overcoming evil. Every reader needs this one under his/her belt!

great book. great movie. a very very fantasy oriented book about a magical forest. i also liked all the christian analogies cs lewis threw in there. i am not christian myself, but that does not mean i cant appreciate someone elses beliefs and the art it took for him to apply those kinds of legends into his writing. very interesting series that im just starting to re read. currently re reading the magicians nephew aka book 1 of 7.

This may be a book for children, but I loved it even reading it as a grownup. I hope I never outgrow my feeling that sometimes fantasy should be able to come true.

CS Lewis at his best and that is saying A LOT.

I loved this book even before it was a movie. The shiver down my spine as they sheered the mane off of Azlan, was a major reason I still read this book at 36. Deeply moving and much deeper undertones than many first realized upon reading it the first time. A perfect book for that boy who refuses to settle down and sleep.

An absolutely wonderful read for children of all ages! In fact, I didn't read it until high school, but I loved it as much as any child I know upon reading it the first time.

Always a keeper. One of those childhood fantasy that makes you want to explore every house, every nook and cranny. And the wonderful people in the wardrobe make you hate those superior to you (the queen).
