Una encantadora e ingeniosa historia intergeneracional escrita por una nueva y talentosa voz de la literatura infantil: Sophie Dalh.
Si eres una verdadera aventurera, el Hotel La Sirena es el MEJOR lugar para vivir. Hay habitaciones para explorar, huéspedes que espiar y muchos secretos que descubrir.
Una nueva huésped ha llegado al Hotel La Sirena. Quién será? Por qué nadie sabe su verdadero nombre? Llega con su bufanda de plumas, su gesto altivo, treinta y tres maletas, dos perros, dos gatos y una tortuga de mirada miteriosa. A Mabel, hija de los propietarios de día y espía de noche, le parece sospechosa y no cesará en su empeño hasta descubrir todos sus secretos.
Será esta huésped la
supervillana que sospecha Mabel o
la compañera de aventuras que siempre quiso tener?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Who is Madame Badobedah? Mabel sets out to prove that an eccentric new hotel guest is really a supervillain in this witty storybook about an intergenerational friendship. There's a strange new guest at the Mermaid Hotel -- a very old lady with a growly voice, bags stuffed with jewelry and coins and curiosities, and a beady-eyed pet tortoise. Mabel, whose parents run the hotel, is suspicious. Who is this "Madame Badobedah" (it rhymes with "Oo la la") who has come to stay indefinitely and never has any visitors? To find out, Mabel puts on her spy costume and observes the new guest. Conclusion? She must be a secret supervillain hiding out from the law. The grown-ups think Madame Badobedah is a bit rude -- and sad -- but when she invites "dahlink" Mabel for a cup of forbidden tea and a game of pirates, the two begin a series of imaginary adventures together, and Mabel realizes that first impressions can sometimes be very wrong. Conjuring two quirky heroines that young readers will love
