The Neverending Story by Michael Ende

 The Neverending Story by Michael Ende-445 pages (Mass Market Paperback)

⭐⭐⭐⭐✩

This is the story of Bastian Balthazar Bux and his adventures in Fantastica. Running away from bullies, Bastian goes in to a bookstore where he finds a strange book called The Neverending Story. Intrigued, he takes the book and runs to his school's attic to begin reading it. He learns that Fantastica needs a savior as the Childlike Empress is very ill and Fantastica is fading into the Nothing. Can Bastian save Fantastica? What will happen if/when he does? Can he get back to the real world? I enjoyed reading this book for the Sci-Fi/Fantasy Book to Movie Club I help lead. The book is much better than the movie(s) based on it.
