November's blog


The Magician's Nephew
by C.S Lewis
Significance
I chose this book because I always wanted to read the Chronicles of Narnia but never felt like it
something that I though was cool were the connections to The Lion Witch and the Wardrobe. This year was the best year to start this series since they are all about 200 pages long and very interesting. This book is probably he only book I really got in to so far.
Perspective
C.S. Lewis is the author of an amazing story writer so far I have finished one and on page fifty on the second. These books are something amazing, Magic, Evil Witch, Apples that can make you immortal, Flying horses, Lion, Kids, Baby lamp post. you may think some of the things I mentioned are form LWW but there in the first to.
Evidence
I think the augment that the author is getting at is no one knows whats out there there could be other worlds. Also that immortality is something we all want but always comes to a big cost most people would kill others to get what they want.
Connection
This story connects to the next one to my surprise. I thought there would be no connections but I was wrong very wrong. you know the immortal apples I was talking about well the boy got the apple and gave it to his dying mother so they could naturally sleep without medication. he took the core and planted it in his back yard and put six magic ring's, that sent then to Narnia, around the apple core. Then the tree grew up and had the most Delicious apples ever and when they moved they had to cut the tree down so instead of getting rid of it he turned it into A wardrobe that they sold.
Supposition
I would have changed the story by making them go to Narnia more then three chapters because it is so cool there like anything you plant starts to grow like a piece of a lamp post would turn into a baby lamp post. It would make it more interesting.
