The Magician’s Nephew by C.S. Lewis is a classic children’s fantasy novel that is often overshadowed by its more famous counterpart, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. However, this book is a valuable tool for educators looking to engage their students in a meaningful and enriching learning experience.
