Una historia infantil interesante con temas que no esperaba que tratase.
Aunque lo más desafiante ha sido leerlo en gallego, con el lápiz y traductor al lado. Aprendiendo nuevos idiomas, una experiencia.

Unha historia de nazis e piratas na costa norte de Galicia pasada pola peneira da sensibilidade de Rivas.
Non sei que pensarán os nenos de dez anos aos que vai dirixido, pero a min préstame ben.

Lin a edición en galego de Xerais. Libro curtiño, dirixido a nenos de 12-13 anos, mais que para min foi o cálido abrigo dunha tarde.

Me ha parecido un lectura super ligera. Le han faltado paginas, todo avanzaba muy rápido, pero ha sido entretenida. De estas lecturas de cuando no sabes que leer.
