The Magician's Nephew is a fantastic book to read. It was written near the end of the Chronical's of Narnia series. However, it is a prequel to The Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe. This story helps explain how certain things The story begins with Diggory meeting Polly in her backyard. Diggory and Polly discover a passageway that connects the neighborhood homes together. Diggory and his monther live with his Aunt and Uncle who seem to lead fairly common and boring lives. Diggory and Polly soon learn that Uncle Andrew has a secret and the secret lies in the mysterious yellow and green rings that they find in his secret study. When Polly is given a yellow ring the adventure begins. Diggory and Polly witness the birth of Narnia, meet the White Witch, and learn what real magic is.
This is a great book that I would recommend reading before the rest of the Narnia books.
