When I was in elementary school they made me read this in Grades 3, 5, and 8 and then write an essay about how it’s a biblical allegory. And then I had to do it again in Grade 9. So, for a long time I was absolutely sick of Narnia. SICK! I would tell people I hated this book all the time. 

Well I am eating my words because I read this book to my students and had a great time. It’s such a cozy fantasy fairytale and holds up to the test of time.
