Also aboard the ship is its captain Lord Drinian, his first mate Rhince, and the children's old friend Reepicheep, an irritable but highly honorable talking mouse. The lords' names are Argoz, Bern, Mavramorn, Octesian, Restimar, Revilian, and Rhoop. As part of his oath of office, Caspian has vowed to track down the Seven Great Lords of Narnia who had been exiled by the king's wicked uncle, Miraz. After a brief reunion with Caspian, the children learn that three years have passed in Narnia since their last visit. The ship belongs to Caspian X, the ruler whom the Pevensie children helped install as King of Narnia in the previous book, Prince Caspian. The painting turns out to be a portal to Narnia, swallowing the three children and depositing them into the sea astride a large sailing vessel known as the Dawn Treader. One day, the children examine a painting of a ship at sea, hanging in the guest bedroom where Lucy is staying. While the eldest, Peter, is off studying with Professor Kirke and the next eldest, Susan, is in America with the children's parents, Lucy and Edmund are forced to stay at the home of their cousin, the rather detestable Eustace Scrubb. Unlike previous installments, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader focuses only on the two youngest Pevensie children, Lucy and Edmund, rather than all four siblings.
In 2010, the book was adapted into a film starring Liam Neeson and Simon Pegg. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader tells the story of three children who are transported to the magical world of Narnia through a painting of a ship. Lewis’s children's fantasy novel The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (1952) is the third installment of his popular and culturally-significant book series, The Chronicles of Narnia.
