I enjoyed this book. It was fictions but you could reference certain things to your own life. I would recommend it to people who have a good imagination and who like playing with dolls or little figures. It was a fiction book and my favourite character was little bull who when Omri ( the little boy who has a friend called Patrick) put him in a cupboard and turned the lock with his grandma’s magical key he became real after being a plastic figure. I found it interesting that the little figures could have their own lives even when they were plastic and by bringing them to life you just whisked them out of their own time and they could unfortunately die in their own time as we find in the second book called “Return of the Indian” I would really recommend this book to people who like learning about the past as well.

I liked reading this book - it made me think about other peoples feelings. Omri is my favourite character. He is interesting and real life had an effect on him - Yes i would recommend this to my friends to read.

Great book. This was a fantasy but it did have a bit of fact in it. It was set in the present but with characters from thenpast

I liked little bull the most because of his bossy characteristic which makes him funny and I would recommend this to everybody who likes an adventure.

I enjoyed this book as it is about a boy (Omar) who has a cupboard that can bring plastic figures to life! On his Birthday, from his friend Patrick, he was given a plastic Indian figure that he wasn't too pleased with. Then he found out that when he put it in the door of his cupboard, locked the door and then opened it the figure came to life.

In this book a boy called Omri gets a plastic Indian for his birthday. When he puts him in the cupboard the Indian becomes real. I really like this book because it includes a horse and magic and I really like both of those! I really like this book because there are loads of adventures in it.

I think others should read it because it was a story with a different concept.
