This is one of those books I remember reading when I was 12 or so years old. 
 And it's one of those books that I still enjoy reading now. 
 It's a simple story to follow. It's not bogged down with lots new made up words that lose the story. 
 But it's not boring. There's a lot that is going on. There's the lion, Aslan, and the wicked White Witch. 
 And the wardrobe that Lucy stumbles upon during a game of hide and seek with her siblings. 
 I like the innocence of Lucy and the corruptibility of Edmund. I like how this story is decades old and yet it's still fantastic to read now.
