The Ickabog [ang.]

Autor: Rowling, J. K.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustaches you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog.Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth, to scare children into behaving. But the funny

thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own. Could a myth unseat a beloved king? Could a myth bring a once happy country to its knees? Could a myth thrust two children into an adventure they didn`t ask for and never expected? Step into the pages of this book and discover a brilliantly original fairy tale from one of the world`s greatest storytellers. Packed with larger than life characters, extraordinary events, and an unforgettable message about the power of hope and frienship, this is a story that readers young and old will want to return to, again and again.
