Any Chronicles of Narnia fans out there? With the Easter season upon us I’ve been thinking lots about the great lion Aslan, a character created by the inspired and inspirational C.S. Lewis (who mentioned in interviews at the time that he often dreamed of lions before putting his Narnia down on paper!)
