En este divertido álbum ilustrado, el joven paje Bartolomé Cubbins (protagonista de Los 500 sombreros de Bartolomé Cubbins) le da una lección de buen comportamiento al viejo rey Derwin. Aburrido de la lluvia, el sol, la niebla y la nieve, Derwin ordena a sus magos crear algo «nuevo» que caiga del cielo. ¡Lo que obtiene es un aguacero de una sustancia verde y pegajosa llamada glúpiti, que amenaza con destruir todo su reino! Pero con la ayuda del sabio Bartolomé, el Rey (y los lectores) aprenden que, a veces, las palabras más sencillas pueden resolver los mayores problemas.
A Spanish edition of Dr. Seuss’s Caldecott-Honor winning picture book about taking responsibility and saying you’re sorry!
In this hilarious picture book featuring unrhymed verse, young page boy Bartholomew Cubbins (star of Dr. Seuss’s The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins) teaches old King Derwin a lesson in good behavior. Bored with rain, sun, fog, and snow, Derwin orders his royal magicians to create something “new” to fall down from the sky. What he gets is a downpour of sticky green goo called Oobleck, which soon threatens to wreck his entire kingdom! But with the assistance of wise Bartholomew, the king (along with young readers) learns that the simplest words can sometimes solve the biggest problems.
