SUMMARY
In the beginning of the story four young relatives – Peter, Lucy, Edmund and Susan Pevensie are
evacuated from London because the city was under a threat of being attacked in the war. They
were supposed to live in the village at an eccentric professor Kirke.
When the kids come to the house they decide to explore their new environment. The youngest
one, Lucy, finds a big, old wardrobe. She decides to open it and then she finds herself in Narnia,
covered in snow.
Lucy found a fawn named Tumnus who has never seen a girl before and he is left surprised by
her appearance. Tumnus explained Lucy that they are in the parallel world of Narnia and he
invites her for tea. After some time Tumnus starts crying and tells Lucy that he is actually a
secret servant of the White Witch that enchanted Narnia so that there would be eternal snow
and coldness. Tumnus explained to Lucy that the White Witch ordered him to bring her the first
human creature he finds in Narnia. Tumnus liked Lucy a lot so he let her go back to the world
without mentioning her to the Witch.
Lucy left Narnia and told her relatives what she had seen in the wardrobe. They don’t believe
her because she told them that she had been drinking tea for hours when they had seen her a
couple of minutes ago (time flows differently in Narnia). Her older relatives decide to check out
the wardrobe and they find nothing there so they just conclude that Lucy made it all up.
Susan and Lucy spent the night with Aslan’s dead body. In the morning they heard some noise
and then the Stone Tables where Aslan was killed broke in half. Aslan’s body disappeared. They
heard Aslan’s voice telling them that he isn’t completely dead and that he came back even
stronger. Aslan led the girls to the Witch’s castle where they freed her prisoners that were
turned into ice statues. Susan, Lucy and Aslan left to join the battle between Peter’s army and
the Witch’s army. Peter and his army were running out of strength but Aslan appeared and
killed the Witch. After that her army fell apart.
Aslan declared Edmund a knight because he redeemed his sins he did while he was enchanted
and because of his participation in the battle. Susan, Lucy, Peter and Edmund came to the
throne Cair Paravel, the main castle of Narnia and its symbol as Narnia’s official rulers. Aslan
then disappeared again. They ruled for many years and then they became adults. One day, while
they were riding on their horses, they found the way out of Narnia. They decided to leave
Narnia in peace they’ve established and gone back to their world.
Susan, Peter, Edmund and Lucy came back to their world and they were only a few minutes
older even though they lived a lifetime in Narnia. They told their adventures to professor Kirke
who told them that one day they’ll find their way back to Narnia.
