On ROAR!!

I've been rereading C.S. Lewis' The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, and I came across something that I'd just kind of read over the first time. It made me so excited that I just had to share it. As I read, it put a huge grin on my face...hopefully the same will be true for you.

"' Oh children,' said the Lion, 'I feel my strength coming back to me. Oh children catch me if you can!' He stood for a second, his eyes very bright, his limbs quivering, lashing himself with his tail Then he made a leap very high over their heads and landed on the other side of the Table. Laughing, though she didn't know why, Lucy scrambled over it to reach him. Aslan leaped again. A mad chase began. Round and round the hilltop he led them, now hopelessly out of their reach, now letting them almost catch his tail, now diving between them, now tossing them in the air with his huge and beautifully velveted paws and catching them again, and now stopping unexpectedly so that all three of them rolled over together in a happy laughing heap of fur and arms and legs. It was such a romp as no one has ever had except in Narnia and whether it was more like playing with a thunderstorm or playing with a kitten Lucy could never make up her mind. And the funny thing was that when all three finally lay together panting in the sun the girls no longer felt in the least tired or hungry or thirsty. 'And now,' said Aslan presently, 'to business. I feel I am going to roar. you had better put your fingers in your ears.' And they did. And Aslan stood up and when he opened his mouth to roar his face became so terrible that they did not dare to look at it. And they saw all the trees in front of him bend before the blast of his roaring as grass bends in a meadow before the wind."
