El creador de Dragons Love Tacos (#1 de superventas del New York Times) y el creador de Macanudo (ganador del premio Eisner) han hecho un nuevo libro—en español—para explicar a los lectores más jóvenes un misterio que ha estado debajo de las nalgas todo este tiempo: La verdad sobre el sofá.

¡Pss! Oye.
Estoy aquí para contarte algo que la policía de muebles no quiere que sepas...
Escucha atentamente porque voy a contártelo todo.

La mayoría de la gente piensa que los sofás son solo para sentarse o quizás para echar una siesta, pero… ¿Sabías que los sofás pueden volverse locos si no los alimentas con una dieta equilibrada a base de monedas, teléfonos celulares y controles remoto? ¿Sabías, además, que algunos sofás se cultivan en granjas? Algunos vienen de dos sillas que se quieren mucho y otros, en realidad, son extraterrestres disfrazados.

¡Tienes tanto que aprender sobre el sofá!

Esta parodia de complots usa el humor característico de Adam Rubin para explorar la única y verdadera historia (¿en serio? ¿estamos seguros?) del mueble más querido e incomprendido del mundo.
Adam Rubin is the author of a dozen critically acclaimed picture books, which have sold more than five million copies combined. They include Dragons Love Tacos, Dragons Love Tacos 2: The Sequel, High Five, Gladys the Magic Chicken, Secret Pizza Party, Robo-Sauce, the Those Darn Squirrels trilogy, and El Chupacabras, which won the Texas Bluebonnet Award. Publishers Weekly called his #1 New York Times bestselling story collection The Ice Cream Machine a "madcap middle grade debut." Visit Adam online at adamrubinhasawebsite.com and follow him on Twitter @rubingo.

"Children will be hooked . . . An exciting primary-grade Spanish-language read-aloud. It encourages listeners to talk back to the protagonists and provide evidence of their thinking (i.e., foreshadowing in illustrations). It can also be a strong mentor text for using dialogue and speech bubbles in student writing. This meta–picture book will be a favorite for kids with its animal protagonists, laugh-out-loud plot, and character interactions." —School Library Journal
