About this listen

A Newbery Award Winner

Jess Aarons has been practicing all summer so he can be the fastest runner in the fifth grade. And he almost is, until the new girl in school, Leslie Burke, outpaces him. The two become fast friends and spend most days in the woods behind Leslie's house, where they invent an enchanted land called Terabithia. One morning, Leslie goes to Terabithia without Jess and a tragedy occurs. It will take the love of his family and the strength that Leslie has given him for Jess to be able to deal with his grief.

From the golden fields and thick woods of the countryside to the enchanted realm of Terabithia, this heartfelt and authentic story captures the essence of childhood with its mix of wonder and discovery. A rich world blending the mundane with the imaginative infused with a sense of nostalgia and poignancy, evoking the bittersweet nature of growing up.

Bridge to Terabithia is a timeless classic that will resonate with listeners of all ages.
