'The Indian in the Cupboard' by Lynne Reid Banks is an incredible story of fantasy with two young boys and toys coming to life. There are several adventures along the way with the boys and their toys that have turned into miniature people. They decide it is too risky to be playing with human life so they do the right thing by turning them back to their original form- plastic. It is such a great novel which can be enjoyed from a range of ages. I would direct this at a year 5 class (relatable to the age of the characters in the novel) and really enjoyed being consumed into this story.
