Overview
Emma y Martín cambian el fresco otoño de Chicago por las calurosas selvas de las colinas de Puuc cuando se sumergen en el mito del Niño Rey de Uxmal. Allí conocen a Nicté, la curandera.
Nicté está decidida a salvar a su aldea de las constantes sequías y del peso de su despiadado rey. Sigue los rumores de una profecía que la conducen a tres objetos extraños: un huevo gigante, un tambor y un sonajero que solo sonarán para el verdadero rey de Uxmal.
Emma y Martín están ansiosos por ayudar a Nicté a seguir la profecía cuando son arrancados de la selva… ¡y descubren que falta una página de su libro! ¿Podrán los gemelos encontrar la forma de regresar a la leyenda para salvar la aldea de Nicté, o será este el final de la historia?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Twins Emma and Martín help a potential king earn his throne in this third book in the Legendarios chapter book series that’s Magic Tree House meets Heroes in Training!
Emma and Martín swap the cool Chicago fall for the hot jungles of the Puuc Hills when they dive into the myth of the Child King of Uxmal. There, they meet Nicte the healer.
Nicte is determined to save her village from constant droughts and the burden of their ruthless king. She’s following rumors of a prophecy, which leads her to three strange items: a giant egg and a drum and rattle that will only play for the rightful king of Uxmal.
Emma and Martín are eager to help Nicte follow the prophecy when they are yanked out of the jungle—and discover that there’s a page missing from their book! Can the twins find a way back into the legend to save Nicte’s village, or is this the end of the story?
