Caroline McAlister teaches English at Guilford College and every year takes students to Oxford, England, to study fantasy in the setting where C.S. Lewis lived and wrote. She lives in Greensboro, North Carolina. Jessica Lanan spent her childhood dreaming of finding a secret door to a magical world. She finally found her Narnia in the blank page, where anything that can be imagined can be brought to life. She lives in Boulder, Colorado.
Lanan's expressive, soft-focused art is meticulously in step with McAlister's lyrical narrative, as both move from the often-harsh real world to the mystical realm of Narnia. - Publishers Weekly
