The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C. S. Lewis

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (first published in 1952)

Voyage of the Dawn Treader (c) 1952 by C. S. Lewis

is an entertaining fantasy adventure for young and old, continuing the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis. Seasoned veterans, Edmund and Lucy come back to Narnia. The brother and sister have lots of experience with magic and travel between their world and Narnia. But this time, their cousin Eustace Scrubb gets pulled along as well.

It all starts in their cousin Eustace's house when the three of them see a picture of a ship on the wall that begins to move. Before they know it, they're pulled through the picture and into Narnia, or rather, the ocean east of Narnia where they are pulled out of the water and onto the deck of The Dawn Treader. Edmund and Lucy are thrilled to be back (this is their third trip to Narnia) and are especially glad to see their old friend Caspian with whom they had an adventure on their previous trip.

Eustace, however, has an entirely different reaction to being suddenly and magically pulled into a different world. He didn't have much of an imagination to begin with, and to find himself on the deck of a ship in Narnia leaves him extremely traumatized and threatening all sorts of legal action against his new companions.

But will his trip to Narnia and his adventures with Caspian and the others ever change his heart? Read the book and find out! I recommend this book to readers young and old who enjoy fantasy and adventure!
