The Lost Story

by Meg Shaffer

Are you sure you want to do this, my prince? You can stay. You can stay forever. I can’t let Jeremy go alone. The magic won’t let you both remember. Not as long as the door is open. It’s too dangerous for the kingdom. I know. And you won’t be able to help Jeremy. I know that too. Then why go? Because I…we. We what, Rafe? You can tell me anything. We miss our moms.

All books are magic. An object that can take you to another world without even leaving your room? A story written by a stranger and yet it seems they wrote it just for you or to you? Loving and hating people made out of ink and paper, not flesh and blood? Yes, books are magic. Maybe even the strongest magic there is.
