About this book

Español

El libro de chico

Chico siempre ha vivido en las afueras de su pequeño pueblo medieval, con una joroba en la espalda, un pasado misterioso y la capacidad de hablar con los animales, por lo que muchos se burlan de él. Todo cambia cuando llega un sombrío peregrino llamado Secundus, quien impresionado por sus habilidades lo contrata como sirviente para una expedición llena de acción por Europa en busca de siete reliquias de San Pedro. Pronto descubre que el viaje esconde robos y peligros, pero Chico está decidido a llegar hasta el final, esperando que San Pedro lo haga igual a los demás niños.

English

The Book of Boy

Boy has always lived on the outskirts of his small medieval village—hunchbacked, mysterious, and able to talk to animals, he's mocked by everyone until a shadowy pilgrim named Secundus arrives. Impressed by Boy's climbing skills, Secundus hires him as a servant for a suspenseful journey across Europe to gather seven relics of Saint Peter. Boy soon realizes the pilgrimage isn't innocent—they're stealing relics and making dangerous enemies. But Boy is determined to see it through, wondering if Saint Peter might finally make him like other children.
