Blog Post 1 : The Lion, The Witch, And the Wardrobe : Character - Lucy


              Lucy becomes much more sincere through the entire book and that’s how she changes. At first she was very hyper, always used her imagination but then as time went by she got more mature and I think that is because of Peter and Susan. In the beginning of the book she says “We can pretend we are Arctic Explorers” when the three children need to find Edmund. Lucy’s the type of girl whose trying to be optimistic about everything! I think that she changes because in the beginning she doesn’t mean to be optimistic and all delightful about everything but at the middle she does it on purpose to brighten up her siblings day.
                I feel as if Lucy was the one to go inside the wardrobe because she’s a really curious, optimistic, and cheerful girl but later in the book she gets more sincere and brave! She’s most likely getting her braveness throughout the entire adventure and journey that her and her siblings go through in Narnia. Lucy is much different than other young children because in the beginning of the book, when Mr.Tumnus was crying about how he’s such a bad faun for kidnapping Lucy, a regular child would probably start crying also and not know what to do. But instead of Lucy doing that, she was very calm about it and was comforting the faun! Santa Claus gives Lucy a cordial, which she uses to heal the wounded following the battle with the Witch's troops.
 I think the cordial represents all her strength and power that she’s been showing over her siblings. Santa Claus gives Lucy a cordial, which she uses to heal the wounded following the battle with the Witch's troops. The power the cordial I think represents her optimistic because she’s trying to cure people physically and emotionally. All the stress the Penphancies are going through is something that Lucy is trying to take away. The cuts/bruises, etc the creatures are getting is what Lucy is trying to take away. This is why I think the cordial represents all the strength and power that Lucy has.
