The Magician’s Nephew

Description: The Magician’s Nephew is (chronologically) the first book of C. S. Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia. The story follows the adventures of Digory and Polly, who are sent by Digory’s wicked uncle on a quest that takes them to “the wood between the worlds”. From there, they plunge into different worlds, meeting several characters along the way — including Jadis, the Witch, and Aslan, the Lion.

In this 6 week course, students will have the opportunity to study this penetrating novel. With the aid of the study guide, students will improve their active reading skills through an observation and discussion of the storylines and vocabulary in the individual stories. The guide will help students to check their comprehension of the readings through key questions and composition activities. No credit will be awarded for this class.
