While I would recommend it to adults, it is not a fantasy.  The film maker
has chosen to show something which is never intended to be actually
happening in the story.  It is  the children¹s imagination as they role play
(for lack of a more precise term).  I often recommend ³children¹s² books to
adults (occupational hazard of being a third grade teacher).  I just read
Eragon and enjoyed it, not as much as I had hoped, but it was ok.  If you
want a great read (and haven¹t yet read it) I would recommend The Giver, by
Lois Lowry.
