This review is from: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Hardcover)

The reason I'm reviewing the 1950 MacMillan Publishing Company version is that this version is the one I have that is hardcover. There are many reasons why you should buy the book itself. The plot is rich and full of details (however if you read The Magician's Nephew first, much of the plot will be spoiled). The illustrations are absolutely wonderful. Also (though this is a reason why you should buy the 1950 one), having it in hardcover and textured really holds the book together, so you can expect to get many years out of it, if it has already lasted 59. This is the order in which you should read the books: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Prince Caspian, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Silver Chair, The Horse and his Boy, The Magician's Newphew, and the Last Battle. By the way, if you're someone who absolutely loves the original order of the books, or even someone who prefers the chronological order, you'll notice there's just no way to change The Last Battle, with the "last" part of it in the title.
