Aslan is a Christ-like figure who appears in the Narnia series by C.S. Lewis. He is a powerful lion who represents goodness and hope. Lewis based Aslan’s character off of his own religious beliefs, and Aslan has served as an inspiration for many Christians. Aslan is a compassionate and loving character who always does what is right, even if it isn’t easy. He is a great example of what it means to follow Christ. Quittner, Charles.
