Prince Caspian
Significance
This book has a lot of connections to the second book in the series L,W,W because of Aslan(the lion) Peter,Susan,Lucy and Edmond This book will proubbebley help the story line for the next book. I chose this book because it was the next book in the series and also because the movie is coming out in a few months.
Perspective
The creator C.S. Lewis created an amazing series of books. Each story gets better. I bet most of you have only read the second book but you dont know what you are missing.
Evidence
This book might have an argument since it has to do with war. Who do you thing is right the telimeranians or the old narnia. It is much like today people forced to hide or be killed much like Iraq were thay are fighting back much like in this book.
Connections
As I said this has some connections to the real world even though it was made in 1951. Thing is that C.s.Lewis studied mythology for many years.
Supposition
Based on this infromation I think that the two sons of adam and two dauthers of eve are going to be in the next book THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TRADER.

The rules of the game

The Rules Of the game


Significance
This chapter is crucial to the story because you know about Waverly jong’s mother how she escaped her wedding and all the pressure she got when she was a kid. Now her daughter is getting the same pressure her mom had because she is a master of chess.

Perspective
Amy Tan was born in America and had parents who immigrated from china; she failed to meet her mother’s expectations by becoming a pianist and a doctor. So this book is a lot like her life story such as Ying-Yang St.clair being a tom boy and not a proper lady.

Evidence
In china all the things like burning the five evil’s, Getting set for marriage when you are three all these things are in old Chinese culture.

Connections
Having extremely high expectations I have seen a lot like at swim team I here mothers well at her children to go faster or well at them for doing something with there stroke acting like there coach.

Supposition
The only thing I would change is to put about the author on the back because I had to search the inter net just to find out who she is. Did you know Any Tan has Lyme disease?

The Hourse and his boy



Significance
This Book is not as inportant as the previous two books but is a very interesting story. If you are thinking that it is a boring book then you are right but half way through the book you cant stop reading because it gets so much more interesting.

Perspective

This book is not a crutcal part to the series but has some interesting twists like alsan saving the life of the main character when he was a baby.

Evidence

This book has kind of anrgument and a war starts Between Narnia and Arcaneland vs. Carmalone.

Connections

Alot of the culture in the begining is much like that of the middle east because of how they discribed the places and the people, And they only give an education to people of royalty , you will have to read the book to find out. The narnian culture is much like ours , They eat eggs and bacon, They start wars.

supposition

Based on this book I can guess the the charicter is going to show up in the next book prince chaspian
