A magical and thrilling middle grade series by the award-winning and bestselling author Cornelia Funke! Perfect for fans of The Chronicles Of Narnia, Nevermoor and Spiderwick Chronicles and now a major film available to watch on Netflix!
This is definitely a series that will become one of our favourite classic children’s books, and it perfectly summarises how so many of us feel when we get to tuck into a brilliant book and get lost in extraordinary worlds.
When Meggie loses her mum, her father, Mo, suddenly stops reading to her. He has good reason to though... when he reads books, they COME TO LIFE! While this may seem like an astonishing gift, it's a double-edged sword, and of wonderful magical creatures can be brought to the human world, dangerous characters can step out of the pages too...
Once these characters have escaped the tight-binded spines of their books, there's no turning back. In each book of this spell-binding series, Meggie and Mo will face new challenges, as Mo is not the only storyteller who can bring characters off the page and, when things go wrong with storytelling, characters can wreak havoc in the human world, or worse... humans get trapped in books too!
Let the characters of Inkheart transport you to a charmed Inkworld, about to be fought over by rival rebels and princes... You won't want to ever leave this world!
