His assignment was to spend that year alone 'assessing' the threat of the wolf population on the local
herds of caribou who's numbers were dropping radically.
Equipped with little more than a tent and other camping equipment, Mowat set out to spend the next year among these animals. In this book is the documentation of the real-life adventures that followed.

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is the book that started it all. It is the magical tale of how four English children- Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy - were whisked away into the world of Narnia at a time of crisis, for the land was under the merciless rule of the White Witch, formerly Empress Jadis, who cursed it with perpetual winter.
The Story: While at a huge manor in the English countryside owned by Professor Digory Kirke (from The Magician's Nephew), four young children discover a wardrobe full of big fur coats and a certain magical secret. For this wardrobe was built from the wood of a Narnian tree and had the power, when Aslan willed it, to act as a portal from our world to Narnia.
