This must have inspired the Talisman a little

A bear throwing a bee hive into Uncle Andrew's face was the funniest thing that happened

Lewis doesn't seem to have much faith in the human race

Aslan seems really into monarchies, which I guess makes sense, Christianity is all about kings and so is England

Dwarves seem traditional in their blacksmithing abilities

The witch makes a great point, what the hell has aslan done for digory? Why is he just doing his bidding?

The ridiculous errand aslan sends digory on ..

Of course the first evil of Narnia is a woman

Since there's all this son of Adam nonsense does that mean that Christianity is both real and allegorical at the same time in this book? And that Aslan knows about Christianity and also he's a Jesus stand-in?

I'm not sure we needed so much time spent on the animals trying to decide if Uncle Andrew was a tree or not (they decided he was)
