Now a major motion picture. Starring Brendan Fraser, Andy Serkis, Eliza Benett and Helen Mirren.

Inkheart.....a book that should be tasted, chewed and devoured thoroughly; a magnificent feast for book-lovers, noblemen, vagabonds, fair folk, outcasts, fire-eaters, magicians, pirates, fairies, trolls, ogres, sorceresses..........

Now picture this: you are reading a book aloud to your wife and your three-year-old daughter on a cold, rainy night. All of a sudden, something slips out of the pages.....something that has a breath of life. The creature that has escaped the boundaries of fiction and tumbled into your living-room, unfortunately, is an evil tyrant named Capricorn. Barely breathing, you stare at the creature incredulously. A breathing creature, not made of human flesh or blood, but of paper and printer's ink.....and a human's voice. You almost scream when you come to realize that your wife is nowhere to be found. Yes, you have the magical ability to bring the characters from a book into life! But here is the thing: you could never control what would leap off those pages and into our mortal world, nor who or what goes in.

Mo, a father, a book binder, a master of his own art.......his voice as if a beautiful melody, a gentle calling perhaps, brings out the colors, the scents, the words, the letters.....and the magic of every page in a single book. And then comes the night when fate decides all.....Mo, tragically has been left without a wife and his 3-year-old daughter, Meggie, mother-less. Days, like rushing liquid, seep through the thin fabric of time; years have passed and nothing out of the ordinary has ever happened in the farm Mo and Meggie live in. However, their simple lives are shattered....changed once and for all when Capricorn and his men break into their sheltered bubble. Meggie is now on a quest to save her father's life, with some help from a motley crew- Dustfinger, Elinor and Farid as the young girl, who also possesses the same extraordinary gift as her father's, has been thrust into an enchanting but perilous world of magic, destiny and power.

Readers, you'll be spellbound, transported, moved, touched, awed, amazed.........a lot like Harry Potter, but.....never have I experienced the utter joy of reading a story, within a story; a book, within a book.

See what happens if you READ THE BOOK ALOUD!!!
