The story begins when four children: Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are evacuated from London because of the Blitz during World War II.  The house to which they are evacuated  is  very large and somewhat famous.  On a rainy day, they explore the house and find a room with a wardrobe inside.  The youngest, Lucy, goes in and finds a snowy wood and a Faun named Mr. Tumnus.  The faun welcomes her to the [[Narnia|land of Narnia]] and invites her to his house for tea.  After serving tea, he lulls her asleep with the intention of handing her over to the White Witch. He changes his mind and in tears explains everything to Lucy.  He helps her escape back to ‘Spare Oom’ and ‘War Drobe,’ countries he never studied in school.

Edmund arrives at the Witch's castle and becomes her hostage.  She sends her wolves to find his family, while taking Edmund to head them off before they reach Aslan.  The Beavers get the children to Aslan first, and Aslan arranges to have Edmund rescued.  The White Witch arrives to claim the traitor as her right, and Aslan secretly arranges to die in his place.  Aslan is ceremonially killed at [[The Stone Table|the Stone Table]], and the witch then takes her army to attack the children and Aslan’s allies.  Aslan is resurrected the next morning, with Susan and Lucy present, and travels to the witch’s castle to restore all the animals she had turned to stone.  Once restored, they join the battle in progress between the witch and Peter and their forces.  Once he arrives, the battle quickly ends, the Witch is killed, and Narnia is freed from all of her magic.  The four children are crowned as the new rulers of Narnia.
