About this book

Español

Apestoso tío Muffin

Ganadora del XV Premio Anaya de Literatura Infantil y Juvenil y seleccionada en los White Ravens 2018, esta novela divertida e irreverente presenta a Mr. Muffin, que lo ha probado todo para librarse del mal olor que le persigue: desde bañarse con agua hirviendo hasta sumergir la cabeza en un cubo de perfume. Nada funciona, así que lleva una vida solitaria llena de jabón y aburrimiento. Hasta que aparece Emma, una niña misteriosa que asegura ser su sobrina y quiere ayudarle a vencer su apestoso aroma… y su miedo a vivir. Una historia sobre superar prejuicios y falsas apariencias.

English

Stinky Uncle Muffin

Winner of the XV Anaya Children's and Young Adult Literature Prize and a 2018 White Ravens selection, this funny, irreverent novel follows Mr. Muffin, a man who has tried everything to escape the terrible smell that follows him—from boiling baths to dunking his head in a bucket of perfume. Nothing works, so he lives alone, surrounded by soap and boredom. Then Emma, a mysterious girl claiming to be his niece, knocks at his door determined to cure his stink and, more importantly, his fear of living. A warm story about facing fears and looking past appearances.
