How a talking horse and a boy prince saved Narnia from invasion. Book #3 in the Narnia series.

Quick Summary

The Horse and His Boy flips the Narnia formula by putting two unlikely heroes, a sarcastic talking horse and a boy who thinks he's nobody special, in a high-stakes race against time to save a kingdom they barely know. Kids will devour the fast-paced escape across the desert, laugh at the witty banter between Bree and Shasta, and gasp at the jaw-dropping revelation that transforms the boy's entire identity. If your kid loves the humor and heart of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets the Prisoner of Azkaban or the swashbuckling spirit of The Hobbit, they'll absolutely adore this hidden-prince adventure. Perfect for kids in grades 4-7, this 5.8 AR-level story delivers just the right mix of mystery, action, and laughs for readers around 10-12 years old.
