Michael Ende (author)Published: 03/07/2014
Puffin Classics: the definitive collection of timeless stories, for every child.
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.
