Help with research

Postby sean » October 27th, 2005, 11:34 pm

Can someone point me to a URL which indicates how many copies of "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" have been printed/sold? (or the appropriate seach terms (I have tried numerous combo of copy/copies sold, etc.) And what awards it has won. I have searched through hundreds of websites via google and askjeeves, but to no avail. I get #'s for the The Chronicles but not the single book.

Thanks for any and all assistance.

As far as awards go, only one book of CON has won one. The Last Battle won the Carnegie Medal in 1956.

Thanks for the reply on the award. I am amazed that there is only one award and only for the Last Battle. Amazing.

Still can't find the print/sold number :cry:
