C. S. Lewis's most famous children's book presented as a graphic novel.

First Lucy, then Edmund, Susan and Peter discover that through the wardrobe lies the enchanted land of Narnia - a land of Talking Animals, Dwarfs and Fauns, a land held in the grip of the White Witch, where it is always winter, and never Christmas.
But once there, the children are taken under Mr Beaver'swing, and Mr Beaver leads them to Aslan, the Great Lion, who has plans for them, and for Narnia.

A reissue of this classic story told in graphic novel style with glowing full colour illustrations.
