The Silver Chair-C. S. Lewis


The Silver Chair is a beautiful story about a family that has been separated. King Caspian has suffer to a lot, he lost his wife and his son Rilian is missing for many years. No one has found prince Rilian, and now Eustace and Jill are in a quest to find him and return him to Narnia where he belongs with his father.

For me the theme to this book is family. I recommend this book to everyone, because it teaches the importance of a family. Every one cares about their family, which is why this book makes it meaning to read.You always have to love your family, because one day you never know what is going to happen, and once you look back you would have wanted to change everything that was possible.

This book was problobly written in the 80's, because it talks about how boys used to wear shorts. The story talks about a queen being bitten by a big snake. Her son Rilian, after her death he seeks through the same place where her mother was killed for revenge. Though every day he comes home empty handed. One day he asks his father trusted friend to come with him, and what they see is a beautiful women like a ghost, though they know she is evil. The next day he disappears. Now Aslan sends Jill and Eustace to find him. Will they find him in time?

I think the arguement that is being made is that everything wrong can be fixed. The author supports this argument by putting a piece of a story saying that a school of bullies is now a school of peace. In my opinion, I think that i agree because everything wrong can be fixed with some support from everyone, or someone whom is nessary.

This story connects to the real world, beacuse we all need to take care of our family. We all need to be smart at every step that we take, because it may affect in the future. Today some of us have a family memeber that is missing, and once you found him it will be too late, and you will remember the good times they had, and you'll want to change all of the arguements that they had.

Let's suppose that the queen was never killed, then the prince wouldn't be missing. If all this didn't happen then there won't be any point reading the story.
