DedicationEdit

"For Anna, who even put The Lord of the Rings aside

for a while to read this book.

Could anyone ask more of a daughter?"

"And for Elinor, who lent me her name,

although I didn't use it for an elf queen."

Cornelia dedicated her book for two females, for Anna, her daughter, and for Elinor, a close friend.

Book descriptionEdit

"One cruel night, Meggie's father reads aloud from

Inkheart, and an evil ruler named Capricorn escapes

the boundaries of the book, landing in their living

room. Suddenly, Meggie's in the middle of the kind of

adventure she thought only took place in fairy tales.

Somehow she must master the magic that has conjured

up this nightmare. Can she change the course of the story that has changed her life forever?"
