        <description><![CDATA[I assume from the tags that this is in reference to "The Magician's Nephew" by C. S. Lewis. The young Digory Kirke returned from Narnia with a magic apple given to him by Aslan to cure his ill mother. Digory does so, and plants the core of the apple in his back yard. The apple core grows into a tree, which eventually blows down in a storm. Digory (now an adult known as Professor Kirke) has the wood made into a large wardrobe. In "The Lion,...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I am not aware of a website that provides a timeline for the book; it would probably be easiest to compile one yourself.  Ten main events in the narrative might include:
1.  Polly is transported by Uncle Andrew's magic rings into another world; Digory is sent after her into the unknown by Uncle Andrew to bring her back.
2.  Digory meets Polly in the World Between Worlds.  When they try to get back home, they instead end up in a land of...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Lewis uses a point of view in his Narnia Chronicles that is somewhat difficult to identify.  These stories (including The Magician's Nephew) are all told in the third person, but he consistently uses the first person &quot;I.&quot;  However, his use of the first person in narrating the story does not change the fact that he is, indeed, telling a story about someone else, not about himself, thus making the point of view third person.  ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[An interesting question. The protagonist is fairly straightforward; it is Digory Kirke, the magician's nephew who gives the novel its title. It's his core adventure—he whose mother is ill, he who has to face great temptation with the fruit that could heal her, and so on. He's the character who the story focuses on, and who goes through the greatest growth. As far as antagonist, I'd argue that there is more than one. I'd say that Uncle Andrew...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[In addition to the wonderful tie-in of the apple leading to the wardrobe, there are a few other &quot;explanations&quot; for objects/situations in the other Narnia books.  For example, when Jadis followed Diggory and Polly to the new Narnia, Jadis had grabbed the arm of a lamp post from England, and carried it with her.  When Aslan approached, singing Narnia into existence, she threw it at his head, but it merely glanced off and sank into...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I would say Man vs. himself.  Digory is definitely attempting to find himself and his place in the world or in Lewis' created worlds.  This adventure is a series of events which allow Digory to rise and fall within the every day human life of decision-making.  He makes poor choices and is allowed to be redeemed and forgiven.  Digory brings evil into Aslan's beautiful new world, but he is given a chance to redeem himself.  He proves that...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Hmm. How far back do you want the chain of events followed? 
Polly and Digory go to Charn.
Digory wakes Jadis.
Jadis goes with them to Earth, causing havoc in London.
Polly and Digory use the rings to take Jadis out of London, and accidentally bring others with them.
Rather than going back to Charn, they go to Narnia, where they are present for Aslan's creation of the world. This introduces evil to Narnia, and Digory must go retrieve the magic...]]></description>
