So, I have been reading Jack’s (C. S. Lewis) books again to see how the movie faired.
While I understand the decision to begin with the more famous The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, I do hope they make The Magician’s Nephew. It is the first book chronologically and has some amazing scenes in it.
Speaking of scenes, I was quite impressed with how they changed some of the scenes in the movie adaptation. They are different but convey the ideas which were covered in more scenes in the book.
I am reading A Horse and His Boy tonight. I want a refresher on what happened in this book which is being skipped over to do Prince Caspian. Obviously they are doing the movies in the order the books were published.
I was always drawn to the final book and the description of what happens at the end, but the creation scene in the first book was equally as moving during Sunday’s reading.
