“No, Peter, I’m not,”she said.“It’s—it’s a magic wardrobe.There’s a wood i, and it’s snowing, and there’s a Faun and a Witd it’s called Narnia; e and e.”
The others did not know what to think, but Lucy was so excited that they all went back with her into the room.She rushed ahead of them, flung open the door of the wardrobe and cried.“Now！go in and e for yourlves.”
“Why, you goo,”said Susan, putting her head inside and pulling the fur coats apart.“it’s just an ordinary wardrobe; look！there’s the back of it.”
Then everyone looked in and pulled the coats apart; and they all saw—Lucy herlf saerfectly ordinary wardrobe.There was no wood and no snow, only the back of the wardrobe, with hooks on it.Peter went in and rapped his knuckles on it to make sure that it was solid.
“A jolly good hoax, Lu,”he said as he came out again.“you have really taken us in, I must admit.We half believed you.”
“But it wasn’t a hoax at all,”said Lucy.“really and truly.It was all different a moment ago.Holy it was.I promi.”

“e, Lu,”said Peter.“that’s going a bit far.You’ve had your joke.Hadn’t you better drop it now?”
Lucy grew very red in the fad tried to say something, though she hardly knew what she was trying to say, and burst into tears.
For the few days she was very mirable.She could have made it up with the others quite easily at any moment if she could have brought herlf to say that the whole thing was only a story made up for fun.But Lucy was a very truthful girl and she khat she was really in the right; and she could n herlf to say this.The others who thought she was telling a lie, and a silly lie too, made her very unhappy.The two elder ones did this without meaning to do it, but Edmund could be spiteful, and on this occasion he iteful.He sneered and jeered at Lud kept on asking her if she’d found any other new tries in other cupboards all over the hou.What made it wor was that the days ought to have been delightful.The weather was fine and they were out of doors from m to night, bathing, fishing, climbing trees, and lying in the heather.But Lucy could not properly enjoy any of it.And so things went on until the wet day.
