We are reading through the Chronicles of Narnia in Literature this year. We are learning about setting so Haley and Kevin made displays of two settings. Haley chose The Wood Between the Worlds and she wrote a descriptive paragraph. Kevin chose Charn and wrote a cinquain.
The Wood Between the Worlds, by Haley
You might be wondering why it is called "The Wood Between the Worlds." You are probably saying to yourself, "What other worlds are there?" Well, I will tell you. It is a very pleasant place. It is so silent that you can almost hear the trees growing. The funny thing about it is that when you first go there you feel as if you had been there your whole life. The trees grow so close together that you can't even see the sky. You know there is a very strong sun in the sky because there is a green light coming from the trees. One very strange thing is there are pools as far as your eyes can see. And this is why it is called, "The Wood Between the Worlds," for every pool is a door to a different world. Digory and Polly, the main characters in The Magician's Nephew, went to two other worlds. One of them was Narnia and the other was Charn, the desolate city destroyed by the evil queen, Jadis, when she spoke the Deplorable Word. You will find out all about it in The Magician's Nephew by C.S. Lewis.
Charn, by Kevin
City
Destroyed, desolate
Terrifying, horrifying, frightening
Makes blood run cold
Town
