Friday Book Snippets

Friday Book Snippets is a weekly blogging event co-hosted by Anne@HeadFullofBooks and Olivia at Bemused and Bookish. Share two snippets (a sentence or short paragraph) from the book’s beginning, and page 56 (or another page) in the book you are currently reading. No spoilers, please.

“This is a story about something that happened long ago when your grandfather was a child. It is a very important story because it shows how all the comings and goings between our own world and the land of Narnia first began.”

And on page 56 of the hardcover copy I borrowed from the library it says, “”We’ve come from another world; by Magic,” says Polly, who thought it was high time the Queen took some notice of her as well as of Digory.”
