Why does the poet most likely include this allusion to C. S. Lewis’s book The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe?

The poet most likely includes this allusion to help show that books were a source of comfort and imagination for the speaker.

Explanation:

The speaker of "A Poem for My Librarian, Mrs. Long", by Nikki Giovanni, is reminiscing about when she was younger. Back then, when there was no possibility of watching TV all the time, she delighted herself in reading books. Books are still something the speaker loves (hardcover being the preference), something that opens the door to a different world, just like the wardrobe did in "Chronicles of Narnia". However, the speaker feels safe, comforted/comfortable in this new world. Unlike the children who crossed to Narnia to find witches and lions, war and challenges, she found only happiness:

And Mrs. Long opened that wardrobe

But no lions or witches scared me

I went through

Knowing there would be

Spring

hope this !

a series circuit is one with all the loads in a row. there is only one path for the electricity to flow. if this circuit was a string of light bulbs, and one blew out, the remaining bulbs would turn off.

unlike in series circuits, a charge in a parallel circuit encounters a single voltage drop during its path through the external circuit. the current through a given branch can be predicted using the ohm's law equation and the voltage drop across the resistor and the resistance of the resistor.

a parallel circuit has certain characteristics and basic rules: a parallel circuit has two or more paths for current to flow through. voltage is the same across each component of the parallel circuit.
