Description from Helen G aka tea chick: a funny story: for the last week or so, I've been reading The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe to my daughter Emma. Each night when I bring the book into Emma's room and begin to read, our cat Ivy comes in and sits on Emma's bed and listens to me read, seemingly fascinated. When I finish the 2 chapters for the night, Ivy jumps down and leaves with me. Perhaps she likes the story because of the lion...

Helen G aka tea chick says:Thank you so much ladies! I love “rose gold” and was thinking of it when I chose the colors (but I mainly just wanted to tell the story)! I’ve read some of CS Lewis’ adult books (Surprised by Joy, and The Screwtape Letters) but not the children’s ones yet. We have really been enjoying the book together.
