(Realistic Fiction)
This is about two children who become close friends and share their talents to create another world for them to escape their reality. They create their imaginary kingdom of Terabithia and declare themselves king and queen, spending everyday after school there. Jesse has a crush on his music teacher and goes to the National Gallery of Art in Washington with her one day after school. That same day Leslie went to Terabithia alone. The rope broke when she was swinging and she fell into the creek and drowns. Jesse is able to overcome his grief because of his strength he learned through his friendship with Leslie. He takes boards from Leslie's house and builds a bridge in Terabithia.
