Lina Maslo has written for us an interesting and insightful view into 'Jack' (C.S.) Lewis' life and that which made him the author that we know and love.
Now was an excellent time for me to read this with my son, as we have just finished reading The Magician's Nephew and soon we'll be embarking on The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, both, of course, from Lewis' epic: The Chronicles of Narnia.
I found it a lovely and fascinating fact that Lewis was inspired to bring some of the characters from his childhood imagination to paper for the evacuated children that he took in during WWII, and how some of those evacuees became a part of his beloved stories.
I am giving 3.5 stars to this sweet biography.
