I am reading the 10th chapter of The Horse and His Boy from C. S Lewis. I predict that the kids and the two horses will go through the Narrow Gorge to Archerland to get to Narnia. I think that because I don’t just read the book, I looked at the map it included.
I finished Chapter 10th and I know that my prediction is correct. The kids did go to the Narrow Gorge.
I also had two questions. My first question is why the hermit called the horses “cousins”? I think that he called the horses “cousins” because they are all narnians. Narnians are not people like us, they are special. The hermit could be a dwarf because he has a long beard and he can see the future.
My last question is: who would get first to Narnia, Shasta or Rabadash army? I think Shasta would get to Narnia first because the hermit showed him a shortcut and now Shasta is ahead. But it will be harder to travel with no horses around, so Shasta must hurry to Archerland.
My problem was the word “hermit”. Now I know that “hermit” means “a person who lives alone in the mountains or in the forest”. First I looked at the dictionary to find what it meant and that was “recluse”. But I didn’t know that word either so I went to look for that definition and guess what it was: “hermit”. I had to go to the online dictionary.
