one of the first "big kid books" i read when i was little was the lion, the witch and the wardrobe. i loved it. except for lucy. she finds narnia, she is the nicest, everyone likes her the best (move forward in time and she goes to narnia the most and always has faith in aslan), and yet she is the 4th ruler. what did high king peter the magnificent do besides being born first?
