Chapter 1 – "Can we go to Narnia?"
It was Susan's birthday and her brothers and sisters and their children were gathered around the table at her house for lunch. Chatter and laughter filled the small dining room. The sound of cutlery wasn't heard by anyone.
"Mother," began Lucy, "Please can you tell us again about your adventures in Narnia?"
Lucy had dark hair like her mother and piercing blue eyes. Her skin was tanned and she was of average height. Peter and Edward looked very similar and both had blonde hair and brown eyes. Sarah was a brunette. She had pale skin and brown eyes.
Edmund opened his mouth to speak, "Lucinda, haven't you hear that story enough?"
Peter, Lucy and Susan nodded their heads in silent agreement.
"Oh please, Susan, do tell us again!" begged Sarah.
"Yes, please do!" Piped up Percy and Edward.
After a moment or two, Susan finally gave in, "Oh, all right." She said, rolling her eyes.
" One day, me and my brothers and sister were playing hide and seek …" All the children leaned in and listened to the story. Peter, Edmund and Lucy sometimes interrupted to give their points of view and opinion.
The story came to a close and Edward said, "Can we go to Narnia?"
Susan smiled, got up and began clearing away the empty plates, "I suppose it is possible … The wardrobe that we used to enter Narnia is selling in the antique shop down the road. It hasn't been sold yet. You could give it a go."
I unison, the children stood up, grabbed their coats and ran out the front door.
"A-a-ah! You can't go now!" yelled Peter, but they didn't hear him because they were already half way down the block.
