==About Jill==
 
-
Jill is friends with [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace Scrubb]] because of their mutual misery at their boarding school, Experiment House. Both Jill and [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]] are targeted by the school bullies, and Jill is intrigued when [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]] tells her of a way to escape to another world. Once in Narnia, Jill is entrusted with the "harder task" in their mission. She provides the theoretical basis for the quest to find the lost Prince because she has spoken directly with [[Aslan]] and received His instructions. [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]] and [[Puddleglum]] rely on her to remember the guiding Signs that she was given by [[Aslan]]. Jill has several faults (showing off, quarrelling with [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]], and being impatient) but she is also brave. When they learn their lives are in danger from the Giants at Harfang, Jill skillfully plays the part of a giggling, thoughtless girl to convince their hosts that they have no suspicion of the Giants’ plans. Though she suffers from claustrophobia, she goes with the others through the stifling passages of the Underland. When she and [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]] go to Narnia to help King [[Tirian]], [[Tirian]] marvels at her woodcraft. Jill is impulsive, compassionate, and feisty, a character with whom many fans readily identify.

===~ The Last Battle ~ (1956)===
[[File:3774.jpg|left]]Jill is present when King [[Tirian]] suddenly appears to the friends of Narnia, alerting them to the fact that Narnia is in danger. Since [[Aslan]] has told the Pevensies that they will not be returning to Narnia, it is decided that Jill and [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]] will go, using the magic rings. They take a train to the meeting place to get the rings from [[Peter Pevensie|Peter]] and [[Edmund Pevensie|Edmund]], when suddenly there comes a “frightful jerk”... and Jill and [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]] find themselves in Narnia. During their mission to help [[Tirian]] rescue [[Jewel]] the Unicorn, Jill has the sudden inspiration to go inside the stable and free the false [[Aslan]], the Donkey [[Puzzle]] dressed in a lionskin. Jill fights by [[Tirian]]'s side in the last battle for Narnia, and is thrown through the stable door. Jill witnesses night falling on Narnia and goes "further up and further in" with the others as [[Aslan]] leads them to His country.
