Overview
Este superventas en Japón llega a nuestro país para conquistar a los amantes de la lectura de todas las edades.
Un rey anciano, ávido lector, casi ciego, envía a dos de sus súbditos a dar la vuelta al mundo en busca de historias extrañas y maravillosas. Los dos hombres emprenden el viaje y a su regreso, a lo largo de trece noches, cada uno le cuenta al rey sobre los libros que ha encontrado: está el libro que nadie puede leer porque va demasiado rápido, el libro que se busca por todo el país con la policía pisándole los talones, el libro abandonado en la estantería de una librería de segunda mano (feliz, a pesar de las páginas gastadas, porque ha acompañado a una persona que lo ha leído mil veces a lo largo de su vida), el libro que solo niños muy pequeños pueden leer, el diario que comparten dos niños y que contiene secretos muy dolorosos … y muchos otros más.
A través de esta obra ilustrada única, nos embarcamos en un viaje cautivador y reconfortante que nos enseña la fuerza de la palabra escrita, el poder y la importancia que tienen los libros en nuestras vidas, y las diversas maneras en las que interactuamos con ellos.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
An illustrated fable about the power and infinite magic of books.
The Japanese bestseller that has captivated readers of all ages.
An elderly king, an avid reader but almost blind, sends two of his subjects to search the world for strange and marvelous stories. Upon their return, over the course of thirteen nights, the men tell the king about the books they found: the one no one can read because it goes too fast; another that is on the run, with the police hot on its tail; the volume abandoned on the shelf of a second-hand bookstore (content, despite its worn pages, because it was owned by a person who read it countless times throughout their life); the story that only young children can read; the diary shared by two children that contains painful secrets... and many more.
This unique illustrated tale leads us on an enchanting and heartwarming adventure that reaffirms the power of the written word, the important place books hold in our lives, and the multiple ways we interact with them.
