Imaginative, awkward loner Bastian Bux finds himself trapped in a school attic with a stolen book. As he begins to read of Fantastica, a land of stories imperiled by the all-devouring Nothing, he begins to believe that the magical inhabitants know he is there and that they are calling out to him for rescue. When he is finally drawn into the pages of The Neverending Story, he finds himself on a quest far more complicated--and more important--than even his wild imagination could conceive. Only a great dreamer can heal Fantastica, and only in Fantastica can Bastian truly be healed...or lost forever.
