+ | ==About Mr. and Mrs. Beaver== | ||
+ | Mr. and Mrs. Beaver are Talking Beavers, larger and more intelligent than regular beavers. They are a typical married couple; Mr. Beaver works on their dam while Mrs. Beaver cooks and sews. But their lives are forever changed by the rumors of [[Aslan]]’s return to Narnia and the arrival of the four Pevensies. The two Beavers are overjoyed to find the children because it means the prophecy foretelling the end of the [[White Witch]] may be fulfilled in their lifetime. The Beavers are excellent guides through Narnia as they elude the [[White Witch|Witch]]’s police and bring the Pevensies to [[Aslan]]. When the [[White Witch|Witch]] comes to the Narnian camp to treat with [[Aslan]], Mr. Beaver is not afraid to voice his opinion of her usurpation of the throne. Because of their courage and belief in the prophecies and [[Aslan]], the Beavers are rewarded by seeing the day that two Sons of Adam and two Daughters of Eve are crowned kings and queens of Narnia. | ||
