"Do you want to leave the world behind? Then this game is for you. The first one to finish and shout Jumanji wins the game." But you must finish. Because with the first throw of the dice strange things start to happen. Peter and Judy find they must face lions, crocodiles, rhinoceroses and a hunter with a big gun. Can they finish the game before it finishes them?
I have seen it on TV. However,I was very exciting becuase it have many differences from movie to book.
It is like a Japanese SUGOROKU. So it is easy for me to be into jumanji.
The end of the story make us surprize! I really enjoyed this book.

Jumanji is name of board game. In this game, things written on squares happen in the real world.
For example, a flower which can eat people appeared.
This game is too awful, but it is interesting.
If someone invent a game like this in the future, it will be popular.
