When she gets out of the forest, she sees a lamppost and a Faun named Mr. Tumnus. The Faun takes her to his house where he gives her tea to drink. After a while, she found out that his intention had been to put her to sleep, then take her to the White Witch (the evil "Queen"). He finally decides to let her go and he takes her back to the lamppost. Next Edmund goes inside the wardrobe and sees the Witch and then leaves. Then all four kids are hiding from Mrs. Macready and step into the wardrobe, and meet Mr. Beaver.
Mr. Beaver takes them to his house and tells them all about Narnia and about Aslan the lion, who they are supposed to meet at the Stone Table. After that, there are a series of battles and Aslan unfreezes everyone who was turned to stone.

Lucy, one of four children, finds a door into another world. She goes there and learns from a reliable source of the things going on in that world, as far as who are the good guys and who is the bad guy. Her brother, Edmund, also went into the world, and the first person he meets is the evil witch, Jadis. Through lies and enchantment, she got him to believe her side of the story, in which she made herself out to be the good guy. Then she said she would reward him if he would bring his brother and two sisters (actually she was going to attempt to kill them to stop some prophecies from coming true.) He, his brother, and his sisters later return, and he betrays them to the witch. The witch takes Edmund as prisoner. Aslan, who returns swiftly, parleys with the witch and trades himself for Edmund. Aslan is horribly killed, but them returns. He then leads his army in the land of Narnia, with all four kids transformed into kings and queens, and kills the witch. Then, without remembering much of the world of Narnia, the kids return to their world after reigning as kings and queens.

While visiting a country home, the four Pevensie children discover a magical wardrobe that leads to another world, a place called Narnia. When they discover Narnia, it is being ruled by the White Witch, an evil tyrant who makes it "always winter and never Christmas" in the land, and who kills at will. To save Narnia, the children must bring about the return of Aslan, a (literally) godlike lion - but they have a traitor in their ranks. This is the start to a classic children's series.
