Summary: Have you voted yours yet?
Review: When was the last time you cried reading a book? The Neverending Story has hurt me more and made me happier than any other book I have ever read. Fantasia's enchanting, the story enthralling and Bastian so real in his wishes that you feel his mistakes are yours, too. Don't forget who you are.

Summary: A young boy strives to have confidence in himself.
Review: Bastian,a young boy, is being picked on his way to school. To get away from his peers, he runs into a book store and while inside he finds the book The NeverEnding Story on the check-out counter. Something draws him to the book so much that he steals the book from the book store. Instead of going to class that morning Bastian sneaks up into the attic of his school so that he can begin to read the mysterious book,which he was drawn to. Basitan completes all of the adventures together with the main character of the book. In the story Artryu and Bastian's mission is to find a way to stop the plague called the nothing from taking over Fantasia. This is one of the best books I have ever read. This story was a childhood classic when I was very young. This story has magic, adventure, and monsters. If you have seen any of the NeverEnding story movies you have to read the book. This book is for anyone who loves fantasy novels.

Summary: The best book I ever read (and I've read a lot!)
Review: When I got this book I was 9 years old and I really believed it would never end. I always hated to say goodbye to my book-friends, so I thought this was the perfect book for me. It was true: in my dreams it never ended, not even now, over 15 years later. I've never read the English translation, but I loved the Dutch one for the good plot, the nice characters and, of course, the red and blue text. It's definitely the best book I have ever read.

Summary: Words Have Yet To Be Created!!
Review: I first fond this book when I was 7 years old. I read the small paperback...at least 9 times. I was captivated. When I found the hard cover, I jumped for joy! It had been 5 years, and I still remembered the entire story! This wonderful book should be read by anyone who can read english. The Neverending story, however, is not just a child's book. I am an adult now and I still read this book when I get a chance, and it still amazes me!! This story really should have many more stars (10 would be a modest number!) Please, you owe it to yourself to read this beautiful masterpice!!

Summary: WHAT A BOOK!
Review: Well, I am busy reading this wonderful book for, is it the 30th time? It actually was the first English novel that I read that time as a 12 year old. I remember it took me 21 days to get through it that time(English is my 2nd language) I was intrigued by the bi-colored printing of the text(I think that was the reason I took it out of the library) and it was wonderful!!!!!! Unfortunately the hardcover version at our local library was put on the blacklist and now I have to read the paperback in which the text is black, but the red parts of the hardcover was italicized - EECK - it certainly takes away the sheer magic of the story!!! I recommend it for young and old!!!!!!!

Summary: Imagination made of twenty-six phonetic symbols.
Review: The Neverending Story is, simply put, the most influential book that I have read in my life. I first read it at the age of 10, when I was still trying to figure out who and what I was. Countless teachers had chastised me for "having my head in the clouds" and "imagining when I should be learning", and it wasn't until The Neverending Story that I realized there was nothing wrong with me. In fact, I learned that imagination is possibly our most important quality. We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams, and only the music keeps us human. Only the dreams keep life worth living. The Neverending Story made a mark on me in a way that nothing ever has. It changed me, in a most fundamental way. To any parents with small children, I would recommend this to them. And to any ten-year old wondering who you are...read the book, and maybe you'll find out.

Summary: A breath taking book that takes you to magical Fantastica.
Review: I love this book! It is witty and funny, yet it can be serious. Unhappiness drives our main hero to utter desperation, and at times your head can not bear to read another word. It is joyful and filled with passion. Read this or else...

Summary: A whismical fairy tail with a good lesson.
Review: Bastain Balthzar Bux thinks he is not wanted by his father since his mother died. He feels the only way to get away is to read. He steals a book, "The Neverending Story", and goes into his school's attic to read it. Bastain is suprised when he seems to become a part of the book. Bastain is a very important person because he helped to save Fantastica. But, he loses his memory little by little. All in all, a good read for the younger audience.

Summary: fun, exciting, cant put-down book, in other words READ IT!
Review: this book was a very kewl book. im reading it right now and im about halfway done and i cant remember any boring moments. everyline, every part you are able to visualize with bright colors and fun ideas. it very much reminds me of the narnia series with the animals and the names but this was way before narnia, if you enjoyed narnia defintly read this and visa versa. its not a type of book where you can tell what is going to happen at the end, its full of suprises. it goes very far in ones imagination to write a book where you read about a boy reading the book, then the boy becomes a part of the story, its very original and sometimes i really wish it would never end!
