Book 5 of 7 in the classic series by C. S. Lewis
"Stop it!" cried Eustace. "It's some silly trick you are
playing! Ow!"
A great cold salt splash had broken right out of the frame and they
were breathless from the smack of it, as well as being wet through.
Lucy and Edmund, stuck with their awful cousin Eustace, suddenly find
themselves on board the Dawn Treader - and realise they have fallen into
the magical land of Narnia. Reunited with old friends, the young King
Caspian and Reepicheep the mouse, they gladly join the voyage to the
World's End. Eustace, however, is not so happy. Clive Staples Lewis,
born in 1898, wrote many books for adults but the Narnia stories were
his only works for children. The final title, The Last Battle, published
in 1956, won the Carnegie Award, the highest mark of excellence in
children's literature.
