Puffin Classics: the definitive collection of timeless

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.
'A rich, enjoyable read . . . drawing in the most potent elements of
fairytale, myth, and invented fantasy'Â Observer
