Chapter book

Only the right name gives beings and things their reality. A wrong name makes everything unreal. That’s what lies do.

Bastian is nobody’s idea of a hero, least of all his own. Through the pages of an old book he discovers a mysterious magical world – a world of dragons, monsters, witches and giants. A world that is doomed unless a human can save it. Can Bastian succeed in battling terrible foes and find the strength he needs to give the Empress a new name?

The epic and unforgettable classic fantasy adventure which has captured the hearts of readers of all ages and inspired the much-loved, immersive 1984 movie.
