100 Cupboards


by N.D. Wilson; book 1

When Henry York's parents are kidnapped, he is sent to live with his Aunt Dotty and Uncle Frank in Kansas along with his three cousins, Anastasia, Penelope, and Henrietta. They make him comfortable in the upstairs attic where he discovers, hidden behind the crumbling plaster, 99 cupboards.

Along with his adventurous cousin Henreitta, they decide to uncover the secrets of the cupboards. Armed with their grandfather's diary, they discover that the cupboards lead to magical other worlds, though they stumble upon a wonderful adventure, not everything that comes out of the cupboards is good!

This book is wonderful, suspensful and a quick read. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the audio version and can't wait for the second book to come out!
