About the Beavers

(Michael here)

Just to clarify matters, She-Beaver is the name of the mother beaver in the first Narnia book, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." Hannah and I have been listening to it on CD. Mrs. Beaver is quite on top of things: before the good characters all flee from their home to escape the Witch, she takes the time to pack a picnic lunch and laments that she doesn't have time to get pillows to sleep on. She is the epitome of quality housekeeping. (I mean, besides Monica.)

So, if Hannah is going to raid the "Saints from A to Z" book for names, and start with Z, I figured Narnia was fair game.

I admit, though, that She-Beaver was probably not the best choice.
