Overview

The Chronicles' Companion: Joy Through a Wardrobe is the first work in a series of poetic reflections that will be enjoyed by children as well as adults, and students as well as scholars. This poetic Companion series calls its reader to further enjoy and better understand the essence which frames each book in C.S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia. As the first work in the Companion series, Joy through a Wardrobe is paired with and reflects the first work in the Chronicles series, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, by highlighting the key characteristics in each chapter of The Lion. These poems and reflections act as a source of encouraging words that help the reader navigate the path to joy which Lewis strategically mapped out on every page of The Lion.
