雙語·獅子、女巫與魔衣柜 致露西·巴菲爾德

TO LUCY BARFIELD

My Dear Lucy,

I wrote this story for you, but when I began it I had not realised that girls grow quicker than books. As a result you are already too old for fairy tales, and by the time it is printed and bound you will be older still.But some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.You can then take it down from some upper shelf, dust it, and tell me what you think of it.I shall probably be too deaf to hear, and too old to understand, a word you say, but I shall still be

your afectionate Godfather,

C. S.Lewis
