Jess Aarons' is considered a nobody at school and at home where he lives with a family of only women. The only other man in the house is his father, who Jesse strives for attention and acceptance from. When a new girl moves in next door, Leslie, things change for Jesse Aarons. He experiences the most wonderful friendship one can only find during childhood, and creates a magical world known only to the two of them, Terabithia. When an unexpected tragedy occurs, Jess has to overcome his problems on his own.

This book is a beautiful story about friendship, facing your fears, and overcoming challenges. This book is great for enhancing a child's imagination and teaching them a lesson on life, and all the hardships that come with it. I would highly recommend this book to children no younger than 4th or 5th grade.
