From the producers of
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and the mind of author
Katherine Paterson comes a rousing
fantasy adventure about family, friendship, and the wondrous power of imagination. A perpetual outsider both at home and at school,
Jess Aarons (
Josh Hutcherson) just never seems to fit in no matter how hard he tries. When his goal to become the fastest runner in middle school is unexpectedly thwarted by newly arrived classmate
Leslie Burke (
AnnaSophia Robb), who enters in an "all boys" race and leaves her competitors in the dust,
Jess soon strikes up a friendship with the imaginative outsider. Their bond is soon cemented thanks to
Leslie's love for storytelling and
Jess' skill as an artist, and the two lonely kids create a secret kingdom called Terabithia that is only accessible by swinging over a stream on a nearby rope. Though
Jess and
Leslie may be considered outcasts by their classmates, their adventures in Terabithia find the pair doing battle against the dreaded Dark Master and his malevolent creatures while plotting revenge against the schoolyard bullies. Now, thanks to his adventures in Terabithia and his friendship with
Leslie,
Jess finally finds the confidence needed to stand tall and be himself.
