The series of work that I will be writing is called “The Chronicles of Narnia”. This series will follow the adventures of the four Pevensie children; Lucy, Edmund, Susan, and Peter.

Along the way, they will make new friends and face challenges that they never could have imagined.

The first book in the Earth’s Children series, The Valley of Horses, introduces the reader to the main character, Ayla. Orphaned and alone in the world, Ayla is taken in by a group of Neanderthals. She learns their ways and eventually becomes a respected member of the clan. The Valley of Horses is a story of survival, love, and friendship.
