An awfully abrupt rendition of one of my favorite books - many events are completely re-tooled to allow for the short space resulting in ideas being glossed over (why Edmund hated Peter, for instance).

In the process of abridging, it would have been nice if the adaptor had adjusted the language to make it more suitable for the intended audience (let's face it, this particular adaptation is probably meant for readers of a bit lower level than the regular novel is intended for). Much of the show more language simply isn't suited for a modern audience - especially not an American one.

The illustrations were nice, but nothing to rave about.

This was more of a glorified picture book with clever placement of text as opposed to a "graphic novel" in the truest sense.

This book is amazing in every way. I think everyone needs to read it...do I need to say more?
Not really, but I will anyway. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is such a well written book. The prose are nice and the mood and the feeling is very strong. I love it.
This is one of my all time favorite books. It is a delightful story with lovable character human and magical.
This book is a book of great picture may for young children to learn more about the different countries and states. It is a great book and the pictures are great.
