Note: This edition has all 7 of The Chronicles of Narnia in. I am so glad to have re-read these books, especially as an 'adult'. They are timeless yet you pick up on new things everytime that you read them. Yes, they are books of their time meaning that the culture is very different and they are not as appropriate, compassionate or inclusive as we would expect in this age, but they are still wonderful books and I would highly recommend.
Moderate: Animal death, Death, Racism, and Alcohol
