Narnia Fan Spy Reepicheep, Knight of Narnia, wrote to us about the return of Narnia.com earlier today. Initially, when I went to the domain, it still went to the Disney website. I believe that the DNS hadn’t updated in my area yet.
The simple explanation is that there are many DNS servers all over the place that hold the records for what a website address does when you type it in. When you change it, it can take up to 24 hours for all servers to update. It appears that has happened, and that Narnia.com was redirected today, and you know a little more about how the internet works. He writes:
Hi! I’ve been keeping my eyes open for things to put in spy reports, and I’ve finally found something! You may already know it, but here goes!
I wanted to know if Fox would put up Narnia.com again, so I typed it in. What I got was harpercollinschildrens.com’s Narnia page. I’d been on it before, and I noticed that there have been some changes and improvements.
First of all, there is an interactive timeline of all the books. Unfortunately, only “The Horse and His Boy” and one or two others are complete. It tells a bit about the story, and if you click on anything that is blinking or spinning, it gives you additional information or pictures, including the Dawn Treader’s plans and the signs that Aslan gives Jill.
If any of you have been on the site before, the old games from each of the books are still there, along with a trivia game with questions from each of the books.
There is also a C.S. Lewis biography, and you can learn about the main artists for the covers of the different editions of the books. You can also order most books that have to do with Narnia, and can read chapters out of the seven books.
It’s also concerned with the movie “Prince Caspian” and you can watch the trailer. There is also a kit with the following paper activities:
A picture of Reepicheep to color, a knowledge quiz, a match-up game, a word search, a fill-in-the-blanks about centaurs and minotaurs, a maze, and two pages with which to make Susan’s horn and Peter’s shield.
I just thought I’d let you know, in case you’re interested.
