The Never Ending Story

Hi all
Now I am going to tell about the never ending story.
It is a very interesting story.
It is about a boy named Bastian Baltasar Bux who reads a book named The Never Ending Story. He robbed the book from a library. He reads it. It talks about many things happened in the land of Fantasy and also about the adventures of Atreyu, a boy in Fantasy land and Fujur, a dragon. The book also mentions a little about Bastian. He needs to give a name to the infantile empress a name because Fantasy and the world of the humans would get destroyed if a human being didn’t give a name to the empress. He gives her the name of Daughter of the Moon. She gives him a symbol of her named Auryn. He can desire whatever he wants.
He has many adventures with many things. But he also becomes a bit selfish.
He goes to the Marble Tower. He didn’t find the empress there. His friend Xayide a witch of Fantasy tells him that Atreyu and Fujur are danger for him. Bastian tells Fujur and Atreyu to go to another place, but they want the Auryn. Bastian tells that he will not give it. Xayide tells Bastian that he should be the new emperor of Fantasy because the Daughter of the Moon had given him all her powers with the Auryn. So they organized a coronation for Bastian. On the coronation day Atreyu, Fujur and others come for a war. Atreyu gets hurt there and Bastian escapes from the Marble Tower alone.
Now he also has many other adventures. And he learns many new things. He now desires to get back to his own world. To get back to his own world Earth he goes through many adventures. Later Bastian apologizes to Atreyu and Fujur. With the help of Atreyu and Fujur he could get back to Earth through the Water of Life, but Bastian has to give some of the water of life to anyone he loved. He brought back some for his dad. His dad was very worried about him and asked him where he was. He told about his adventure in Fantasy. He also says that he robbed the book from a library and wants to tell sorry for the man there. He goes there and tells the man his story. The man says that the book does not belong to him, but tells Bastian that he also once lived in the story in Fantasy and named the Infantile Empress with another name.
Hope you liked it. There is also a movie of this story. I saw it but I couldn’t write about it as I don’t remember well.
