In 1950, C.S. Lewis opened the door to a magical world of strange creatures, an evil witch, a powerful lion and four heroic children with "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." The book, written as a children's tale scarcely five years after the conclusion of World War II, captured the imaginations of kids and adults alike.
