Publisher's summary

The first in the series of the classic fantasy tales – The Chronicles of Narnia. Read by the unforgettable Sir Michael Hordern.

“Congratulate me, my dear boy,” said Uncle Andrew, rubbing his hands. “My experiment has succeeded. The little girl’s gone – vanished – right out of this world.”

After Uncle Andrew’s horrible trick, Digory has no choice but to travel over to the Other World in search of poor vanished Polly. Little does he realise that his uncle has unwittingly opened up the doorway to Narnia, a truly magical world, and that their adventures have only just begun…

Missing scenes!

This was a beautifully read book and I love the narnia series but there was definitely scenes missing from this recording. Very disappointed for a kids book to leave parts out.

Still the best version of this book imaginable.

Sir Michael Hordern’s voice, performance and characterizations are absolutely defining. A true and magical classic.
