    This week, we discuss two books from the Chronicles of Narnia series. In the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the Pevensie children go through a wardrobe and discover a magical world called Narnia that is coated in snow.

The Pevensie children must work together with the residents of Narnia and its high king, Aslan, to end the curse on the land and free its citizens. In The Horse and His Boy, Shasta, a young boy, works together with a talking horse, Bree, to free themselves from their owners and escape to Narnia. On the way, they meet Aravis, a young Tarkheena, and Hwin, a talking mare, who are on a similar mission. Their path through Calormen to Narnia brings them through many obstacles, including a plot to bring war to Archenland and to force a queen of Narnia into an undesired marriage. Join us this week!
