Translated Title:
Blancaflor : the heroine with secret powers: a tale from Latin America eng
"¡Una damisela al rescate! Criada por un ogro de padre que se come a sus rivales para cenar, Blancaflor tiene prohibido presumir de sus considerables poderes, por miedo a espantar a posibles pretendientes. Cuando un príncipe cae del cielo y se despierta en su regazo, queda hechizada, y moverá cielo y tierra para ayudar al adorable--aunque no muy listo--joven, intentando que no se entere."-- Page 4 of cover. "In this updated adaptation of a classic Latin American folktale, Blancaflor, a young ogre with magical powers, decides to secretly help a charming prince who has made a foolish bet with her father. Through saving the prince and the kingdom, she learns to be honest with herself and others about the things that make her special"-- Provided by publisher.
