      I love your channel and all the creative tiny scary/creepy/pretty/soothing/fantasy/nerdy things you make. I was wondering, I would love to see you do a book nook for Narnia as well, I'm thinking the scene when Aslan reappears on top of the hill after breaking the stone table as Susan and Lucy watch.
