Vicky BeechingChristian artist Vicky Beeching is going to be performing some songs,  but mostly, she says, speaking on C.S. Lewis for ‘Narnia Day.’  Part of their Homeschool Days.

Next week I am speaking at Walt Disney World in Orlando Florida. I’m singing a couple of songs too, but most of it will be me speaking about C S Lewis.
