Well, we finished the book! For some reason, it took us a long time to finish it, but I don't think we will let that happen again.
I thought that the last part of the book was very interesting, when the Pevensies and Eustace see Aslan:
"Oh, Aslan," said Lucy. "Will you tell us how to get into your country from our world?"
"I shall be telling you all the time," said Aslan. "But I will not tell you how long or short the way will be; only that it lies across a river. But do not fear that, for I am the great Bridge Builder. And now come; I will open the door in the sky and send you to your own land."
And a few paragraphs later:
"It isn't Narnia, you know," sobbed Lucy. "It's you. We shan't meet you there. And how can we live, never meeting you?"
"But you shall meet me, dear one," said Aslan.
"Are-are you there too, Sir?" Said Edmund.
"I am," said Aslan. "But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there."
The Weekly Reader's Society completed The Voyage of the Dawn Treader on December 4th, 2010.
