    The turning point/climax of the book comes just before the resolution. The turning point is Digory's extended struggle with temptation (trying not to eat the fruit for which Aslan sent him). It is made worse by the fact that Jadis is there, tempting him. The climax follows soon after, and leads into the resolution: he goes back to Aslan, and is given the fruit to use to cure his mother.

    It is a rather quiet and personal struggle after all the world-creating in the novel, but it works well.
