About the author (2000)

Clive Staples Lewis, born in 1898, wrote many books for adults but the Narnia stories were his only works for children. The final title, The Last Battle, published in 1956, won the Carnegie Award, the highest mark of excellence in children's literature. Pauline Bayne's work on the Chronicles spans almost fifty years.
