The Indian in the Cupboard
The Indian in the Cupboard is the first of five gripping books about Omri and his plastic North American Indian β Little Bull β who comes alive when Omri puts him in a cupboard.
Essential Modern Classics are relaunched in gorgeous new covers, bringing these timeless stories to a new generation.
For Omri, it is a dream come true when the plastic American Indian he locks into the old cupboard comes to life. Little Bull is everything an Indian brave should be β proud, fearless, and defiant.
But being in charge of a real, live, human being is a heavy responsibility, as Omri soon discovers. And when his best friend, Patrick, is let in on the secret, he soon realises that life-changing decisions lie ahead.
