Summary: This book tells the story of a Japanese student who meets a new student at school. The young boy enters a building in which there is a supposed “ghost”. Upon entering he finds himself in a world called Vision, in which only certain people can enter. He awakes and believes that Vision was a dream, until danger crosses his path. He is told to return to vision to change his fate or he will die. This is a great fantasy book for older elementary children and would be a great way to integrate culture into the curriculum.
