Grandma read this to me. It was very exciting, I liked it when we found out that there was only one lion, Aslan, and he was always there to protect Aravis and Shasta.

I like the long adventure through lots of places. Shasta was my favourite character. He was very brave and he was kind of the main character.

the character I preferred was Shasta because he was brave and became a king. I would recommend to all my friends and others because it is a action book with a good moral message with the baddie being punished.

I liked how they travelled through the desert and found the secret passage and they warned the King the baddies were coming. They found the King out hunting. They had a battle, the baddie was Rabadash. Rabadash was wiggled his ears and Aslan turned him into a donkey. I would recommend this book.

The book wasn’t very interesting but I read it. It is about a boy who runs away with his horse. He discovers that the horse is from narnia and goes to the place

A little boy went on an adventure. His name was Shasta but really he was Prince Cor of Archenland. It turned out that he was the son of King Lune. The horse is called Bree and he is a war horse. I found "Rabadash the Ridiculous" a very funny chapter.

This book is quite interesting. It is about a horse who steals a boy, rather than the opposite. They also meet some companions and they find their way, with obstacles, to the North, to Narnia.

I liked Corin best and would reccomend it to other children who like deserts

Main storyline: A boy called Shasta meets a horse called Breehy-hinny-brinny-hoohy-hah and the horse takes him to Narnia. Shasta realises he has a brother who lives in Narnia. Shasta’s brother’s prince Corrin. Shasta was raised by a local fisherman. Because Shasta was sent away by his dad he didn’t know who his dad was. Who was your favourite character and why? Shasta because he’s the main character and won the battle of Narnia. Was there a character you didn’t like and why? Rabbadash because he’s evil Would you recommend this book and why? I don’t recommend this because there wasn’t much action or story.

I really liked this story and wish that there was another book about the adventures of Shasta and Aravis.
