Our Comments: We love the books on Narnia so much (the 7 Book Set) and find that, though they were aimed at children, they can be enjoyed by Adults. We never read them until we were 20 years old, then read them once a year for three years, and once every ten years since over the next thirty years. We find, as adults, these films to be somewhat slow moving, and much prefer the books. However, the Christian children that we know who frequently ask to borrow our set (ages seven and ten) love them so much that they have watched them all about seven times each just this year. -The Prayer Foundation ™ _________________________________ The Chronicles of Narnia VHS Video s ...are available as a Free Gift to those making a tax-deductible contribution for the support of The Prayer Foundation.™ For more information on how to obtain your own personal copy, and for a list of other Gifts available to our Supporters, go to our page: Gifts For Contributors! ____________________ ...they may also be purchased through our Gift Shop. _____________________________________ Related Pages: Movie Review: "The Magic Never Ends: The Life and Work of C.
