In The Magician's Nephew, you meet Polly and Diggory, young children that live next door to each other. They often wonder about Diggory's uncle, who, every single day, stays in his study doing who knows what. Diggory isn't allowed in the study, but he often wonders. One day, he and Polly sneak up to the study. They are caught by Diggory's uncle and, as punishment, they are forced to be the uncle's test subjects. They must test special transportation rings. These rings help them travel to the strange worlds beyond. They visit the old land where the sun is dying. Then they come back, pick up some passengers, and go to the land of the new, where life has barely started. They witness animals getting the gift of speech from the high leader of Narnia, who is a lion named Aslan, and they discover the White Witch, an incredibly evil woman who wants to take over the new world, which is called Narnia.
