OT: The Neverending Story book

Ok, off topic, but it's a holiday week so everybody can be lenient... <grin>

Just picked up The Neverending Story by Michael Ende in hardcover. (Gift Cards are great) I've seen copies of it over the years, but not like the one I first read many years ago. This one is printed in two different inks, green and red. Everything that takes place in "reality" is printed in red, while everything that takes place in Fantastica is printed in green. It's a novel presentation of a wonderful book, and really makes the tale truely enjoyable. (Not that plain old black ink could do it any injustice, but still...)

The first movie covers the first half of the book. The second movie is the second half of the book, but since they really screwed up the transition (the second half of the book is truely wonderful, so just forget about that movie)
