Out in the middle of nowhere there is a mansion, five miles
from the nearest town and two miles from the nearest post office. There lives a
professor and a grumpy old lady. Nobody knows about all the rooms in the
mansion. Four children had just moved in the mansion from London. Their names are Peter, Susan, Edmond and Lucy,
the eldest being Peter and the youngest Lucy.
The next day Peter, Susan, Edmond and Lucy were exploring
the mansion. They came across a room that was bare except for a wardrobe. The
others left the room but Lucy stayed in the room. She entered the wardrobe but
did not shut the door behind her because one knows that trapping oneself in a
wardrobe is a stupid thing to do.
Lucy kept going back into the wardrobe expecting to feel the
back panel of the wardrobe but it never came. She no longer could see anything
except coats the she felt something spiky and cold then all of a sudden she was
in a snowy clearing with a lamp post in the middle. She heard footsteps and
then a figure. The figure caught sight of her and jumped. Lucy helped the man
with his parcels but it wasn't a man it was a faun.
The faun asked Lucy to come have tea and toast and cake at
his house. So Lucy and the faun walked ,walked and walked to the faun’s house.
Eventually they arrived at the faun’s house and the faun introduced himself as
Mr. Tumnus. Mr. Tumnus's house was a cozy cave with pictures and rugs and a
table. They sat and ate and talked...
I thought that this was the closest thing to the Harry
Potter series. Best book for people who need some fantasy every once and a
while. Good for 3rd grade and up, and has some
words that every 3rd
grader should know. Over all great book that really paints a picture in your
head.
