This is the book that C.S. Lewis intended to be the first in his landmark series, The Chronicles of Narnia. Here we are introduced to Polly and Digory, who are tricked by Digory's uncle, Andrew, into becoming part of an experiment that transports them into the adventure of a lifetime. In this unforgettable story, C.S. Lewis shows us how the adventure began - the glorious birth of the land of Narnia at the hand of its mysterious King. This glorious deluxe edition with a 5-color jacket, gold foil embossing, ribbon marker, and full-color illustrations throughout by Pauline Baynes is the perfect introduction to all the wonders of Narnia and is a keepsake to be truly treasured.
