Overview

An English classic available for the first time in Spanish, Stig of the Dump tells the story of Barney, a young boy who stumbles across the den of Stig, a caveman, in a garbage dump near Barney's grandparents' home. No one believes Barney when he tells them about his new friend, but that hardly matters to Barney and Stig, who get along famously despite not being able to communicate through language. Together, the two engage in such adventures as attempting to start a fire, foiling a pair of burglars, and attending a costume party in which a leopard that has escaped from the circus makes a cameo appearance. This is an unforgettable tale for young readers. Un clásico de la literature inglesa disponible por primera vez en castellano, El amigo secreto de Barney narra la historia de Barney, un muchacho que se topa con la guarida de Stig, un muchacho de las cavernas, en un vertedero cercano a la casa de sus abuelos. Nadie cree a Barney cuando les cuenta de su nuevo amigo, pero poco le importa a Barney y a Stig, quienes se llevan estupendamente pese a no poder comunicarse por lenguaje. Juntos, emprenden aventuras como hacer fuego, frustrar a un par de ladrones de pacotilla y asistir a una fiesta de disfraces en la que se ha colado un leopardo escapado de un circo. Éste es un cuento inolvidable para los jóvenes lectores.
