description: In this beloved classic, young Omri isn’t too excited about the birthday present his big brother gives him—an old medicine cupboard. His mother provides him with a key and as he locks up a plastic toy Indian for the night, he realizes that this cupboard is special. When the key is turned once, the Indian inside comes to life. When the key is turned again, the Indian becomes a plastic toy. Now Omri must help his new friend find his way back to his own world. The New York Times hailed this classic as “the best children’s book of the year.”
