What was C.S. Lewis’s 1950 novel about a wardrobe leading to Narnia called?

The 1950 C.S. Lewis novel about a wardrobe leading to Narnia is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

The book follows the four Pevensie children—Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy—after Lucy discovers a passage into the magical land of Narnia. There they encounter the White Witch, whose rule has brought a perpetual winter, and Aslan, the lion who leads the resistance against her.

The novel was the first Narnia book published, although many chronological reading orders place The Magician’s Nephew before it. Lewis dedicated the book to Lucy Barfield, his goddaughter, whose name is shared by its youngest major protagonist.

Its title combines the three objects or figures that organize the story’s central imagery: Aslan, the White Witch, and the wardrobe that serves as the children’s entrance to Narnia. It remains Lewis’s most widely known individual fantasy novel.
