zathura jumanji book 2 chris van allsburg

Now after twenty years, readers can find out what happens when Danny and Walter play the new game Zathura in which the Budwing boys are taken on the ride of their lives. Where all do they go? What happens to them? And will they ever make it back home? On the last page of the Caldecott-winning book Jumanji, young Danny Budwing is seen running after his brother, Walter, with a game tucked under his arm. All of a sudden, the game becomes reality with meteorites, changes in gravity, a defective robot, Zorgon pirates, and a black hole. They start to, roll the dice, and pick a card. Budwing are out, the boys find a game called Zathura which shows flying saucers, rockets, and planets in outer space, with a path of colored squares leading from Earth to a purple planet named Zathura and back again.
