[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just started the Narnia books with my 5yo, but you have to be okay with Christian allegory and also I'm pretty sure some of the later books are kind of racist. I might just stick with the first couple.[/quote] The message at the end of the last book is that no matter who and how you worship, if you've been a good person, God will see you and welcome you. Obviously the writer was Christian and like his friend Tolkien, the good guys are white and the bad guys are swarthy and distinctly arabic or asian. As an Asian with Arab friends, it doesn't bother me in the least. I love all that Oxford circle of writers.[/quote]
