Earwig y la bruja / Earwig and the Witch

Earwig y la bruja es un clásico indispensable que inspiró la película de Studio Ghibli!

Earwig no vive mal en el orfanato; desde que llegó, todo el mundo hace lo que ella dice, cuando ella dice. Pero todo cambia cuando la adoptan la bruja Bella Yaga y Mandrágora, y la llevan a vivir a su misteriosa casa llena de magia, habitaciones invisibles, pociones y libros de hechizos. La mayoría de los niños saldrían corriendo, aterrorizados por la casa y sus habitantes... pero Earwig no es como la mayoría. Earwig ha decidido que quiere aprender magia, ¡y necesitará ser muy lista (y la ayuda de un gato que habla) para conseguirlo!

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Read the book that inspired the full-length animated feature produced by the legendary Studio Ghibli and directed by Goro Miyazaki.

Not every orphan would love living at St. Morwald's Home for Children, but Earwig does. She gets whatever she wants, whenever she wants it, and it's been that way since she was dropped on the orphanage's doorstep as a baby. But all that changes the day Bella Yaga and the Mandrake come to St. Morwald's, disguised as foster parents.

Earwig is whisked off to their mysterious house full of invisible rooms, potions, and spell books, with magic around every corner. Most children would run in terror from a house like that . . . but not Earwig. Using her own cleverness--with a lot of help from a talking cat--she decides to show the witch who's boss.
