Kathy,

I love that series too.  when I was in sixth grade my English teacher
suggested I read  "the Lion, the Witch, adn the Wardrobe,"  but I too didnt'
discover the rest of the series until college.

Let us know how the movie is.  I'll have to see that too, though not having
kids means I have to admit seeing it for my own sake, LOL.  Oh, well, I
never claimed to have grown up.
