If this is the first time you’ve read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, then you’re in for a treat. C.S. Lewis is one of my favorite all-time authors.

And yes, this is actually the first time I'll be reading <em>The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.</em> Seems kind of strange. Yet, I want to read it for two reasons. First, I want to read material that will help develop my imagination. Second, I want my daughter to read at some point down the line. Hi Laura,

Just get people to stop reading them." Bleak, yes; but I've found that exposure to literature has opened my mind to so many new ideas and experiences that I never would have considered otherwise. I wish everyone could realize the value of it. And btw, 'Their Eyes Were Watching God' is one of my favorites also. As Ray Bradbury said, “You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture.

I can't imagine life without reading (and yes, I'm partial to the "old-fashioned" paper type of books that allow you to curl up on a couch or bed and read for hours). Thanks for referencing my post! (Is this the first time you've read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, or is this a reread?) What a beautiful contribution to the conversation and in support of reading.
