Nidhi | 9 comments WHEN: I read I read this book in the mid 1990s at Pohick Library in Fairfax County, VA.

WHAT: This is going to be tough because I remember so little, but just a bit of the book has so vividly stayed with me. Kids (at least two, maybe three?) find a tunnel in a forest or green space (behind their house, maybe?) that goes to another land, a fantasy land, where magic happens. What I remember vividly is the tunnel - the way it was described planted this image in my head of utter green lushness. I remember loving the book, but nothing else about it.

GENRE: YA fantasy

FORMAT: I think I read it in paperback but I honestly don't remember.

You all are AMAZING - I have a new baby and these books I read as a kid are coming back into my head and I so want to read them with her! Thank you thank you thank you!

Mir | 805 comments I think I read this, too. If it's the one I'm thinking of, it seemed like the author was a lot influenced by Narnia.
