100 Cupboards, N.D. Wilson.  The first in a series of three books, this will delight young fans of the fantastical world of what lies on the other side of the doors - cupboard doors, that is. Young Henry, off to live with his Uncle Frank, Aunt Dotty and three cousins: Anastashia, Penelope and Henrietta, the one with whom he travels to other worlds, hears some thumps and bumps in the night. Henry pulls the wall apart in his room to find various sized cupboard doors, of different sizes and shapes that had been hidden for years. Some lead to goodness and others lead to evil. He and Henrietta, having found a journal, explore many of the doors, only to get lost, escape danger and pursue the mystery of their grandfather and how the cupboard doors came to be. This book was recommended to me by a student and this story is sure to win the hearts of many young readers.
