Synopsis
This bind-up brings together three books from C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew, which tells how Narnia was created and how the wardrobe first came to hold a passage between worlds; The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, in which the Pevensie children discover Narnia trapped under the White Witch's endless winter and join the lion Aslan to break her rule; and The Horse and His Boy, following the slave boy Shasta and the talking horse Bree as they flee toward freedom in Narnia.
Together the three novels span the founding of Narnia through its early years as a kingdom.
