The Great Battle

When they get Edmund back, Aslan was worried because he betrayed his siblings and there is a rule for betrayers. The rule is that eery one who betrays his own team, has to go with the queen and his team. Aslan convinced her not to take Edmund but to kill him. The queen makes a big ceremony to kill Aslan. She stabs Aslan multiple times but Aslan revives, and when he do, Peter was fighting for Narnia with Edmund and all of the team. Aslan went to find Susan and Lucy to help Edmund and Peter in the war. They went to help but Peter's team were loosing people so Aslan bring more. Aslan saw the queen fighting against Edmund, and he throws himself to the queen and with a single but she was dead. Aslam did a coronation and made them kings and queens of Narnia. Years passed and everyone was older. They were crossing Narnia when they crosse with a trail. The same trail were the wardrobe was. They left their horses outside and run to the trail. They open a door and and entered just as small children and the professor who was looking for them asked them what was happening in that wardrobe. 

This is how I think the battle was.
"It was all Edmund's doing, Aslan," Peter was saying. "We'd have been beaten if it hadn't been for him."

This is what Peter said to Aslan at the end of the battle. He was very proud of his brother and what he did to protect a lot o people and fauns.

"And through the Eastern door, which was wide open came the voices of the mermen and the mermaids swimming close to the castle steps and singing in honour of their new Kings and Queens."

This is what happened at the end of the book because when they entered the house this happens.

This book tough me a lot about confidence in yourself, to be brave in everything. This book has a lot of imagery and that is good because it makes you understand the book better by helping the reader visualize what is really happening.

Aslan

Outside the faun's house, they find a wolf. He helped them to find beavers. The beavers told the that there was a prophecy that said that two daughters of Eve and two sons of Adan would help Aslan, the real king of Narnia, defeat the fake queen. While the beavers told this to them, Edmund, run away to the queen. The queen almost kill him, but he did everything he could to keep alive. Peter, Susan, Lucy and the two beavers were escaping from the queen who went to find the whole family. They hide in a cave, they were so scared because a big sled, just like the queen's, were chasing them. It was Santa and had some presents for them. The fox helped as much as he could but the queen found him and froze him. Edmund was a prisoner of the queen for a long time, he was beaten up until his siblings found him and make Aslan's helpers take him away. 

Aslan is a lion. This is how I imagine him.
"All the things he had said to make himself believe that she was good and kind and that her side was really the right side sounded to him silly now. "

This is the felling Edmund had when he realize that he had picked the wrong side. I can infer that if he had this felling he thought that it was a wrong choice to be against his little sister Lucy.

"And Edmund for the first time in this story felt sorry for someone besides himself. It seemed so pitiful to think of those little stone figures sitting there all the silent days and all the dark nights, year after year, till the moss grew on them and at last even their faces crumbled away."

This is a felling Edmund had because from all the time he was locked up, he saw a lot of frozen people that were alive but suffering because they can not move or anything.

This has been a very good chapters because in these chapter the imagery found is better and I can really imagine what is happening, with only a few words.

The Night

One night, Lucy couldn't sleep. She woke up and went to the wardrobe. Edmund, his brother, followed her and entered to Narnia with her, without her noticing. She went running to the faun's house and played with him, while Edmund was walking to see the place. Edmund meets the queen, and the queen convinces him that if he would bring all of his siblings, he would be the king of Narnia, and his sibling would be servants. After that, Lucy and Edmund find each other and go back to the house. They have a big fight and they shouted. The maid of the house was looking for them and all they can think of, was to got the wardrobe and hide. In that moment, Peter and Susan were kind of scared. All of the family had entered to Narnia. Lucy guide them to the faun's house and they saw it was destroyed by the queen. It was Lucy's fault.

This is a faun.
"But Edmund secretly thought that it would not be as good fun for him as for her. He would have to admit that Lucy had been right, before all the others, and he felt sure the others would all be on the side of the Fauns and the animals; but he was already more than half on the side of the Witch."

This is what Edmund thought and did to make her little sister be the crazy sibling in the family. This is the reason why the fight started.

"You are sure there are just four of you?" she asked. "Two Sons of Adam and two Daughters of Eve, neither more nor less?"

This is the part of the book when the queen asked if they were just four of them. I can infer that all she wants is that humans to work for her kingdom as slaves, but hdoesn't realize that.

I like this few chapters because it has been a very good book and it has suspense parts and it is so good. I like that way it makes me imagine everything that happens even thought there are no pictures.

The Wardrobe

As soon as they arrived the house Lucy was afraid that something would happen to them so they decided to play hide and seek. Everybody hid, but Lucy didn't know were to hide. She found some rooms upstairs and she noticed that every door except one was locked. When she entered that door there was a huge closet covered with a sheet. Lucy uncovered the sheet and wanted to see what was inside. She saw only jackets, so she walked and walked inside until she noticed that she was in the woods. She wanted to show her siblings until she meet with a men. It was a faun. She was friendly with him and as soon as she get back into the closet again into the house, time hasn't passed. She told all the story to her siblings and no one believed her. The faun tell her about this evil queen that give an order to every citizen of Narnia (the name of the place) that if they saw a human, son of Adan and Eve, they have to kidnap them and take them to the palace.

When I read that there was a wardrobe I
imagine this.
"Good evening, good evening," said the Faun. "Excuse me – I don't want to be inquisitive – but should I be right in thinking that you are a Daughter of Eve?" 

This is what the faun said to Lucy when she first entered Narnia. In some way the faun entered her some kind of confidence to Lucy and she was very close to him. 

"Then be off home as quick as you can," said the Faun, "and – c-can you ever forgive me for what I meant to do?"

This is what the faun said to Lucy. What he meant was to sing her a nap song so she fall sleep and a soon as she woke up she saw the faun hidden and very scared because he had to take her to the queen but he couldn't because Lucy was his friend.


I think so far in this chapter is very cool because it teaches me that sometimes small children do not always imagine things and needs to be investigated things very well to be sure you're okay.

Narnia

Narnia is a book about a family of four children, Peter, Edmund, Lucy and Susan, that are taken out of their house because of the World War II. Their father is a militar and is working at the war, while their mother is abandon at the house and the kids are moved to a safer place so they are not hurt. Peter and Susan, the bigger ones, are in charge the whole trip. Peter is anchorage of Edmund, while Susan is in charge of Lucy. They get in a train has take them from one extreme to the other, in Europe.They finally arrived to the house, it was a gigantic mansion where the professor was always working and the maid was with a very bad mood and always treating bad the kids. 

This is what I imagine when they said the neighborhood
near their house was being bombed.


"Wait! I have to find dad!" 

This is a part of the book when the neighborhood of the family is being bombed and Edmund went from the shelter running to the house to get a picture of his dad, just in case their father dies. In that moment their mother, Helen, panics because a bomb nearly hit the house but thank god it didn't kill anyone.

"Not for me", said Peter, "I'm going to explore in the house".

This is the part of the book when everyone arrives to the house and the maid explains all the rules to the kids, such as, no screaming, no running, and the most important one, do not bother the professor. Peter went to explore the house for a better place and knowledge of the house by himself if they get into problems or the war comes near that neighborhood.

This book is very good because it explains when every single detail about the World War II and it uses a lot of imagery because it makes me imagine what is happening with just a few words. These chapter also uses ethos because it gave me that feeling of desperation when Edmund went back to the house in the middle of the bombing to get a picture of his dad.
