As you land, you're still a bit dizzy. Woah, did you land in....garbage? There are mounds and mounds of garbage - senseless discarded things like stuffed animals and kids toys.
You hear your friends calling your name! As you stand up, stumble around and make your way over there, you realize Ludo, Sir Didymus, Ambrosius, and Hoggle are all waiting for you in front of a door! They have done it!
They have found the entrance to the Goblin City!

It's easy to slip past the sleeping guard and get through the first doorway. However, the second doorway, you realize you've been noticed - Jareth knows you are here.

The walls rumble, they move and shake. And suddenly they become a huge metal machine that asks:
"WHO GOES THERE?" as it readies a massive ax and starts swinging! You must fight to get past, you and your friends!
a. read a book that starts with any letter in "WHO GOES THERE"
b. Read a book with anything that can be used as a weapon on the cover

How book fits:
starts with any letter in "WHO GOES THERE"

Hoggle quickly climbs the metal creatures and tosses out the goblin inside. He jumps inside and shuts down the machine and you hope you are safe.
You see a doorway just a small ways off and quickly grab your friends and run before you bump in to any other creatures! To your surprise, the door opens easily and you realize....it's open to a staircase.
Closing the door behind you, you realize: THIS is it. THIS is the way to the Goblin City castle.
And you know you must go alone. You turn to tell your friends and let them know "This is how it's done."
Hoggle, Ludo, Sir Didymus - they don't like it but they get it.
Your first steps up the stairs, you spot Jareth. He's in here with you but he quickly walks away.

but so is the baby. You can do this. You just have to find your way to the top.
One Last Maze.
a. Read a book that stars with any letter in MAZE
b. Read a book with a mode of transportation on the cover (be creative - wings, feet, hands, etc)

You remember you are supposed to say something here. What was it.... The Goblin King is rambling, he's asking you to stay with him, he loves you or some such nonsense.
Suddenly, you remember your lines. What you MUST say to get the baby back:

With the last line.... Jareth, the Goblin King, crumbles and disappears in a poof of smoke.
Free choice: Read any book

Suddenly, you wake up on your own bed. What's happened?
You quickly run to the baby's room and flick on the light. You're holding your breath until you see - he's safe and sound in his crib.
Stumbling back to your room, you sit down in front of your mirror. Was it all just a dream?

Suddenly, there is Ludo - saying goodbye but letting you know that...."Should you ever need us" and then there's Sir Didymus "Yes, should you need us"
and they assure you they will be there for you. But you are quick to tell them that you need them and suddenly THEY ARE IN THE ROOM WITH YOU!
CONGRATULATIONS!
It wasn't all just a dream. You did it! You bested the Goblin King, got through the maze and saved the baby!
