Synopsis

In The World According to Narnia, Jonathan Rogers takes you further into the imaginative world of C. S. Lewis, showing how the story lines and characters from Narnia sing with biblical truth.

It is through the imagination that Narnia stories do their work on you; you can hardly help but desire what is good and true and feel that a life of virtue and adventure is something you dont want to miss.
