Synopsis
Ten-year-old Jess has many fears--including a fear of water and a fear of bullies--but his biggest fear is that the other kids will find out about his love of drawing and painting and tease him. Then Leslie, who is rich and smart and doesn't even own a TV set, moves into the neighborhood. The two become inseparable friends and rule as king and queen in Terabithia, their own secret hiding place. Winner of the 1978 Newbery Medal., The life of a ten-year-old boy in rural Virginia expands when he becomes friends with a newcomer who subsequently meets an untimely death trying to reach their hideaway, Terabithia, during a storm.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Ba-room, ba-room, ba-room, baripity, baripity, baripity--good. His dad had the pickup going. He could get up now. Jess slide out of bed and into his overalls."
Industry Reviews
"There are only a few novels for children about death...This one succeeds brilliantly and speaks to the resolution of grief among the living. But because the writing is so fine and persuasive, the impact on readers of all ages is deep."
Eden Ross Lipson
"The story is one of remarkable richness and depth, beautifully written."
