Just read it and the prefatory notes by CSL.

The answers to your questions are contained within the book itself. You might skip to the part where the protagonist interacts with George MacDonald if you'd like them first.

I've just read it, and I admit that a lot of it was hard to grasp for me, but I did get a lot out of it anyways, and I really do love that book.
The man with the red lizard was very interesting. How they turn solid once they believe, and how the good lady with all the children that love her, and then the man with the puppet who chose not to stay with her, that just shows us how we are sometimes, when something that is so much better for us and we chooe the harmful way instead.
I actually went to a Speech and Debate tournement and two of my friends did a dramatic duo interp. on it. Which means they took parts of the book and acted it out. It was very good, and that is what got me to read the book.
