En un encantador relato, un joven se esfuerza por salvar un árbol mágico. El árbol del búho no se parece a ningún árbol que Joe haya visto jamás. Es enorme, frondoso y a veces se estremece como una persona; incluso parece hablar. Granny Diamond una vez vio un búho posado entre sus ramas y ha amado el árbol desde entonces. Significa el mundo para ella. Pero su vecino, el Sr. Rock, quiere talarlo. ¿Por qué le disgusta tanto el árbol del búho? ¿Tiene el árbol un secreto que contarle a Joe? ¿Y cómo puede él, un chico demasiado asustado incluso para trepar al árbol, ser quien lo salve?
Jenny Nimmo is a British author of children's books, including fantasy and adventure novels, chapter books, and picture books. Born in England, she has lived mostly in Wales for 40 years. She is probably best known for two series of fantasy novels: The Magician Trilogy (1986–1989), contemporary stories rooted in Welsh myth, and Children of the Red King (2002–2010), featuring schoolchildren endowed with magical powers. The Snow Spider, first of the Magician books, won the second annual Nestlé Smarties Book Prize and the 1987 Tir na n-Og Award as the year's best originally English-language book with an authentic Welsh background. The Stone Mouse was highly commended for the 1993 Carnegie Medal. Several others of hers have been shortlisted for children's book awards.
