C.S. Lewis letters to children
2 journalers for this copy...
I'm not sure if I'll re-read this one, but I do remember enjoying it. From the back cover:
"Feel grumpy? Feel old? Read C.S. Lewis: Letters to Children. You can do it in one sitting, and when you stand up you'll feel much, much better." - The Sun, Baltimore
Through his letters, C.S. Lewis shared with his young correspondents his feelings about school (he hated math), writing, and animals. And, of course, he talked about Narnia, explaining why there are only seven books in the Chronicles, how to pronounce Aslan's name, and whether Susan will be able to return to Narnia.

A nice enough read, but not exactly thrilling. Lewis has a nice way with children, never talking down to them or avoiding sort of hard questions. Good for fans of his work.
Taking to the meetup.
Rachel gave thi sto me months ago and I'm working my way through it.
