Kate Dicamillo

La Elefanta Del Mago Kate Dicamillo Spanish, 1ª Ed., 1ª Imp. edition

When a fortuneteller's tent appears in the market square of the city of Baltese, orphan Peter Augustus Duchene knows the questions that he needs to ask: Does his sister still live? And if so, how can he find her? The fortuneteller's mysterious answer (an elephant! An elephant will lead him there!) sets off a chain of events so remarkable, so impossible, that you will hardly dare to believe it's true. In this timeless fable, DiCamillo evokes the largest of themes -- hope and belonging, desire and compassion -- with the lightness of a magician's touch.
