    Congratulations to Walden Media!!!
    Hopefully they will soon succeed in finding another company to take on “The Voyage of the dawn Treader”
    Perhaps all Narnia fans should bye an extra copy of the “Prince Caspian” DVD, as presents; to encourage some company to take on the film.
    for Narnia and for Aslan!!!
