<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>One of the most celebrated Newbery Medal winners of all time gets a magical makeover in this new edition, complete with a reader's guide that's ideal for teachers, book clubs, or anyone looking for insight into this favorite book.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>This beloved Newbery Medal-winning novel by bestselling author Katherine Paterson is a modern classic of friendship and loss. This paperback edition is rack size. </strong></p><p>Jess Aarons has been practicing all summer so he can be the fastest runner in the fifth grade. And he almost is, until the new girl in school, Leslie Burke, outpaces him. The two become fast friends and spend most days in the woods behind Leslie's house, where they invent an enchanted land called Terabithia. One morning, Leslie goes to Terabithia without Jess and a tragedy occurs. It will take the love of his family and the strength that Leslie has given him for Jess to be able to deal with his grief. </p><p><em>Bridge to Terabithia</em> was also named an ALA Notable Children's Book and has become a touchstone of children's literature, as have many of Katherine Paterson's other novels, including <em>The Great Gilly Hopkins</em> and <em>Jacob Have I Loved.</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Jess Aarons' greatest ambition is to be the fastest runner in his grade. He's been practicing all summer and can't wait to see his classmates' faces when he beats them all. But on the first day of school, a new girl boldly crosses over to the boys' side and outruns everyone.</p><p>That's not a very promising beginning for a friendship, but Jess and Leslie Burke become inseparable. Together they create Terabithia, a magical kingdom in the woods where the two of them reign as king and queen, and their imaginations set the only limits. Then one morning a terrible tragedy occurs. Only when Jess is able to come to grips with this tragedy does he finally understand the strength and courage Leslie has given him.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>15 Banned Books Every Tween and Teen Should Read--Brightly<br><br>"Eloquent and assured."--Kirkus Reviews<br><br>"Set in contemporary rural America, the story is one of remarkable richness and depth, beautifully written."--The Horn Book<br>
