Summary:
"Se acerca el ickabog... un monstruo legendario que amenaza un reino y que pondr�a a prueba la valent�ia de dos ni�nos. Descubre una aventura sumamente original sobre el poder de la esperanza y la amistad y su triunfo contra todo pron�ostico, obra de una de las mejores narradoras del mundo. El reino de Cornucopia era el m�as feliz del mundo. Ten�ia oro en abundancia, un rey con unos bigotes magn�ificos y un mont�on de carniceros, reposteros y queseros cuyos exquisitos productos hac�ian que la gente bailara de j�ubilo cuando los com�ia. Todo era perfecto, excepto Los Pantanos, la regi�on del norte donde, seg�un la leyenda, viv�ia el terror�ifico ickabog. Sobre ese monstruo, cualquiera con un poco de cabeza sab�ia que no era m�as que una f�abula que los padres utilizaban para que los ni�nos se portaran bien. Aunque lo extra�no de las f�abulas es que a veces cobran vida propia... Pero �puede una leyenda derrocar a un rey amado por su pueblo y destruir un reino feliz? �Puede embarcar a dos chicos valientes en una aventura que no han buscado y ni siquiera imaginado? Si crees que tienes suficiente valor, ad�entrate en las p�aginas de este libro para averiguarlo..."-- provided by publisher.
"From J.K. Rowling, a warm, fast-paced, funny fairy tale of a fearsome monster, thrilling adventure, and hope against all odds. Once upon a time there was a tiny kingdom called Cornucopia, as rich in happiness as it was in gold, and famous for its food. From the delicate cream cheeses of Kurdsburg to the Hopes-of-Heaven pastries of Chouxville, each was so delicious that people wept with joy as they ate them. But even in this happy kingdom, a monster lurks. Legend tells of a fearsome creature living far to the north in the Marshlands... the Ickabog. Some say it breathes fire, spits poison, and roars through the mist as it carries off wayward sheep and children alike. Some say it's just a myth... And when that myth takes on a life of its own, casting a shadow over the kingdom, two children - best friends Bert and Daisy - embark on a great adventure to untangle the truth and find out where the real monster lies, bringing hope and happiness to Cornucopia once more."-- provided by publisher.
