About the Book

Una aventura memorable destinada a convertirse en un clásico contemporáneo del género de «cuentos de buenas noches». Por Tom Gauld.

El rey y la reina llevaban largos años intentando desesperadamente tener un hijo, hasta que finalmente su deseo se ve cumplido... por partida doble. Los reyes reciben el regalo de un robotito de madera y una princesa tronco, pero hay un problema: por las noches, la pequeña se transforma de nuevo en un trozo de madera común y corriente, y solo se revive al canto de «Despierta, tronquito, despierta».

El robot y la princesa son inseparables, hasta que un buen día alguien se lleva por error a la princesa dormida a quién sabe dónde. Ahora, su leal hermano deberá encontrarla y devolverla sana y salva al reino. En el camino, el robot conocerá a personajes tan estrafalarios como la Reina de las Setas, un pudin mágico, un bebé en un rosal y una anciana en una botella.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A New York Times/New York Public Library Best Illustrated Book of the Year

In this fresh new fairy tale, a wooden robot embarks on a quest to find his missing sister --making for a memorable contemporary bedtime story in acclaimed graphic novelist Tom Gauld's first picture book for children.

For years, the king and queen have tried desperately to have a baby. Their wish was granted twice, when an engineer and a witch gave them a little wooden robot and an enchanted log princess. But there's just one catch: every night when the log princess sleeps, she transforms back into an ordinary log, and can only be woken up with magic words.

The princess and her robot brother are inseparable, until the sleeping princess, mistaken for lumber, is accidentally carted off to parts unknown. Now it's up to her devoted brother to find her and get them safely back home. They need to take turns to get each other home, and on the way, they face a host of adventures involving the Queen of Mushrooms, a magic pudding, a baby in a rosebush, and an old lady in a bottle.

This is acclaimed graphic novelist Tom Gauld's first picture book for children, inspired by a bedtime story he made up for his daughters. In his words, "I was trying to make a book inspired by three different sets of books: The books that I remember enjoying as a child, the books that I watched my daughters enjoying, and the books I enjoy now as an adult. I wanted the book to have its own quirky feeling but also to function like a classic bedtime story."
