To all those who like to write...

Though many children wrote to C. S. Lewis to ask him to write more about Narnia, he felt that his work was done. A year before his death he wrote to one young person who wished for more Narnia books:

I am delighted to hear that you like the Narnian books, and it was nice of you to write and tell me.... But why not do one yourself! And why not write stories for yourself to fill up the gaps in Narnian history? I've left plenty of hints-- especially where Lucy and the Unicorn are talking in The Last Battle. I feel I have done all I can!

All good wishes,

Yours

C. S. Lewis
