I was shocked by the number of people who were murdered, hurt or beaten in this book; it was very, very dark and I would never read it to a sensitive child. Still, I enjoyed it very much, four stars. ( ) I loved this book; it’s needed in our starkly divided political climate—for all parties. A king, especially his advisors, create a horrific backstory about the existence of ickabogs. The people are forced for various reasons to believe this story. This results in high taxes, executions, and imprisonment to prop up the lies. In true Rowling fashion, teens save the day. I’m a strong believer in a healthy distrust of those who can tax and imprison us, or in the least “ban” people and/or their beliefs, especially if we don’t toe the party line. Well written, and dark. So I wouldn’t share this with younger kids. El ickabog J. K. Rowling Publicado: 2020 | 271 páginas Novela Fantástico Infantil Se acerca el ickabog… un monstruo legendario que amenaza un reino y que pondrá a prueba la valentía de dos chicos. Descubre una aventura sumamente original sobre el poder de la esperanza y la amistad y su triunfo contra todo pronóstico, obra de una de las mejores narradoras del mundo.El reino de Cornucopia era el más feliz del mundo. Tenía oro en abundancia, un rey con unos bigotes magníficos y un montón de carniceros, reposteros y queseros cuyos exquisitos productos hacían que la gente bailara de júbilo cuando los comía. Todo era perfecto, excepto Los Pantanos, la región del norte donde, según la leyenda, vivía el terrorífico ickabog. Sobre ese monstruo, cualquiera con un poco de cabeza sabía que no era más que una fábula que los padres utilizaban para que los niños se portaran bien. Aunque lo extraño de las fábulas es que a veces cobran vida propia…Pero ¿puede una leyenda derrocar a un rey amado por su pueblo y destruir un reino feliz? ¿Puede embarcar a dos chicos valientes en una aventura que no han buscado y ni siquiera imaginado? Si crees que tienes suficiente valor, adéntrate en las páginas de este libro para averiguarlo… First off, I need to say that people need to CALM DOWN. I literally had a conversation with someone who was shocked I was reading this book due to J.K. Rowling's trans comments. And I challenged this person with two things: If we didn't read a book due to the author or some stance offending us....would we read anything? And then, aren't I as a librarian to at least be aware of a book I KNOW will be popular? So yes, I read The Ickabog. Here is the problem. Inevitably, you will compare this book to her Harry Potter series. And it is nothing like it. No spells. No Voldemort. No Hogwarts. Instead, it is the land of Cornucopia, a place known for its food. And a king who thinks he is "all that" (but he really isn't) and this mysterious "ickabog". A creature people do not believe exists and yet.....does it? Is it really something deadly and evil? Then we have four young people whose lives get altered forever by the actions of the king and his henchmen. This story is one that teaches good versus evil, albeit differently. It teaches how one lie can lead to a myriad of lies. It challenges the perception of what is evil and dangerous. And how people can rise up for goodness and truth. Why would you NOT want to read that type of book? The illustrations are fantastic. Yes, during Covid, J.K. Rowling had a contest where middle grade students sent in their illustrations for chapters she posed online. Imagine how cool it is for those kids to now have their pictures in print!! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
