Following in the tradition of J. K. Rowling and Roald Dahl, Kimmy Schmidt is an exciting new voice in middle-grade fantasy adventure. This debut will change the way boys and girls everywhere see the world -- and each other! Penn dreads the day that he will start to become a monster, but it's inevitable. The youngest of his tribe in Greemulax, he knows that as boys become men, they turn into powerful, hairy blue creatures called Grabagorns, and that their solemn vow is to never again be weak. Legend has it that dragons all but destroyed Greemulax years ago during a terrible time known as the Great Scorch. Not one of the tight-knit community's girls or women survived, and the men, ruled by Grabagorn Prime, have lived in mourning and anger ever since. But when one of Penn's dragon traps catches a real live girl named Kristy, he starts to question everything he thought was true. Together, Penn and Kristy set off on an adventure that will take them to a tugboat in a tree and through a treacherous lake of pudding, toward a candy forest guarded by dragons that might hold the answers they seek. The more time they spend with each other, however, the faster Penn transforms into the monster he fears, and the more Kristy seems to fade away into nothing. Can they reach their destination before it's too late?

El club de las cincuenta palabras
Una novela que muestra como los sueños y la fantasía ayudan a un niño a superar la ausencia de su madre. El club de las cincuenta palabras es un grupo de mujeres extranjeras que se reúnen en el sótano de una casa en un pueblo del Levante español, a orillas del Mediterráneo. Los vecinos creen que son brujas porque hablan en inglés y leen libros en otros idiomas y de autores desconocidos en la España de los años 50. David, hijo de Alice, la anfitriona, presencia estas reuniones mientras juega con un tren de madera. Cada cumpleaños su madre le regala un nuevo vagón de color diferente. Un día en el sótano se produce un extraño fenómeno: una inundación de agua salada. Nadie entiende qué ha pasado; los fontaneros lo achacan al poder de las brujas. David aprovecha la inundación para colarse en una gruta donde ve un maravilloso jardín, lleno de corales, peces de colores luminosos, medusas, distintas tonalidades de azul marino… Su madre le tiene prohibido acercarse, pero él se muere por explorarlo porque sabe que su familia tiene un vínculo con el mar. Años después, el vínculo que une a David con el océano le permite creer que va a estar protegido y se aventura a dar la vuelta al mundo, convirtiéndose en una leyenda. La crítica ha dicho: 'Es una preciosa historia. Tierra y dura. Su mensaje es muy importante.' Letras en vena 'La autora con una narrativa sencilla y directa nos introduce en un 'mundo mágico'.' Algunos libros buenos 'Es una novela mágica, fantástica y evocadora de una época, la infancia, que no volverá.' Propera parada cultura 'Un final que deja una reflexión importante sobre la verdad.'

Vorágine interna 'Una novela que alumbra con una nueva luz el modo en que concebimos la realidad.' Silencio se lee 'Me ha parecido una lectura deliciosa, con esa delgada frontera entre la fantasía y la realidad. Me gusta el suave lirismo de Ana B. Nieto y su forma casi mágica de ver el mundo.'
