De repente en lo profundo del bosque

Más información sobre el libro

In a remote village, all animals and birds vanished years ago, leaving only a rebellious teacher and an old man to discuss these mythical creatures with the children, who have never seen them. Among them is a lonely boy who dreams of animals, howls like an owl, and ultimately becomes an outcast before disappearing. Maya, a brave girl, and her friend Matti decide to explore the surrounding woods, aware of the dangers, especially with Nehi the Mountain Demon lurking at night. Their adventure leads them to a hidden cave where they find the vanished boy, now content and self-sufficient. They stumble upon a beautiful garden paradise filled with animals, the domain of Nehi, who had stolen the creatures from the village. Once an outcast himself, Nehi seeks revenge for his mistreatment by luring children to his fortress Eden, where he has created a world where predators coexist with prey. He allows Maya and Matti to return home, hinting that one day, when cruelty fades and his thirst for vengeance diminishes, the animals might return to the village.
