The Neverending Story

I love the movie The Neverending Story.  When I was in the third grade I went up to a teacher and asked if there was an attic or a basement at the school.  She told me, "Beth this isn't The Neverending Story."  I walked away sad.  This was my third or fourth time reading the book which I also highly recommended.  It's sad that the second part of the book was never done justice.  The sequel wasn't that good.  Bastian basically turns into a jerk.  The Childlike Empress gives him unlimited wishes.  He uses it on things such as good looks.  The problem is that with each wish he loses his memory.  He eventually becomes a boy who can't even remember his name.  Nevertheless, he is able to redeem himself.  I don't know why Momo (another book by Michael Ende) isn't on Kindle.  I'll have to wait for the book I purchased.  It's hard not having a library opened during the Coronavirus.
