"We need a place," she said, "just for us. It would be so secret that we would never tell anyone in the whole world about it." She lowered her voice to almost a whisper. "It might be a whole secret country, and you and I would be the rulers of it."
It was Leslie's idea to create Terabithia, their secret kingdom in the woods where they reigned as king and queen. There no enemy--not their teacher, "Monster Mouth" Myers, their bullying schoolmates, Jess's four sisters, or even Jess's own fears and Leslie's imaginary foes--could defeat them. Jess's friendship with Leslie and the worlds of imagination and learning that she opens up to him, change him forever and enable him to cope with the unexpected tragedy that touches them all.
