Meggie loves stories, but her father, Mo, hasn’t read to her since her mother disappeared.
When a stranger knocks at their door, Mo is forced to reveal an extraordinary secret – when he reads aloud, words come alive, and dangerous characters step out of the pages.

Suddenly Meggie is living the kind of adventure she has only read about in books, but this one will change her life for ever …

Also a major film starring Andy Serkis, Paul Bettany and Brendan Fraser!
