As a child, Clive Staples Lewis imagined many things .
heroic animals and knights in armor and a faraway land called Boxen.
He even thought of a new name for himself--at four years old, he decided he was more of a Jack.
As he grew up, though, Jack found that the real world was not as just as the one in his imagination.
No magic could heal the sick or stop a war, and a bully's words could pierce as sharply as a sword.
So Jack withdrew into books and eventually became a well-known author for adults.
But he never forgot the epic tales of his boyhood, and one day a young girl's question about an old family wardrobe inspired him to write a children's story about a world hidden beyond its fur coats .
a world of fauns and queens and a lion named Aslan.
A world of battles between good and evil, where people learned courage and love and forgiveness.
A magical realm called Narnia.
And the books he would write about this kingdom would change his life and that of children the world over.
