So far I've still not caught up with everyone in the book (at least not with the drawings part), though I have caught up on reading the thoughts and poems and stuff in here. Again, not much too add, though as usual it's really cool to see others' perspectives on a story that's so familiar to me. (Also all the poetry..... )
As far as my own thoughts go, it's really aggravating to me at how often Polly and Digory fight. I mean, of course they're young and can't entirely be expected to have good communication, but when you compare their relationship to, say, Eustace and Jill's...! Imagine how much better it would have been for everyone if they hadn't been arguing about something or other every couple of pages during these first chapters.
@Swanwhite's and Ariel's comments on the drawings: Awww, thank you!! (Also the pose in the second one....I knew exactly what I wanted but when it came to Uncle Andrew's right shoulder I kept messing up over and over and finally just went and checked what it should look like in the mirror. )
For chapters 3 and 4:
I feel like these are super ginormous...maybe I should make the next ones smaller so that they don't take up so much of the page.
