      About This Book

      Unicorns, dragons, sprites, will-o'-the wisps: the inhabitants of an enchanted world. And into this world -- through the pages of an old book -- ventures Bastian, a lonely boy of ten or twelve. But Fantastica is slowly decaying, its Childlike Empress dying. Only a real human being can set things right by giving the Empress a new name.

      Bastian takes up the challenge, and finds himself crossing the Swamps of Sadness and the Silver Mountains, meeting sorcerers and giants, bats and night-hobs, gnomes and racing snails, as he journey's bravely toward the Ivory Tower. Bastian's quest is filled with all the wonders of myth and fairy tale. It is a fantasy adventure that will capture your heart -- and recapture the magical dreams of childhood.
