El Viaje Superincreíble de Freddie Yates / The Super Miraculous Journey of Freddie Yates

About this book

TRES AMIGOS, UNAS VACACIONES DE VERANO Y UN VIAJE LLENO DE AVENTURAS Freddie Yates tiene un plan secreto brillante. Bueno, no tan secreto ni tan brillante. En realidad, podría habérselo pensado mejor antes de embarcarse en la aventura de encontrar a su papá biológico. ¡Ojalá hubiera metido más calzoncillos en la maleta! Y es que en su viaje no estaba previsto que participara en un concurso anual de comedores de cebolla, ni que apareciera Trev el Grandulón, ni que saliera en la televisión junto a sus dos mejores amigos disfrazado de Supergirl. A Freddie le encantan los datos curiosos, pero le queda uno muy importante por aprender: los viajes están llenos de imprevistos y, a veces, te llevan al destino menos esperado. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Jenny Pearson's exceptional debut delivers laugh-out-loud calamity, high-stakes adventure, and the warmth of family. Facts are everything to eleven-year-old Freddie Yates: once you know a fact it's yours to keep. After his grandmother dies and Freddie discovers his biological father might be alive and well in Wales, he decides to follow the facts. Together with his best friends, Ben and Charlie, he sneaks off on the adventure of a lifetime (or at least, the summer holidays) to track down his father. Freddie doesn't expect any miracles. But when the three unwittingly set off a chain of inexplicable events via an onion-eating competition, a few superhero costumes, and a group of very angry antique thieves, Freddie discovers that some things can't always be explained―and sometimes what you're looking for has been with you the whole time. Propulsive and hilarious, The Super Miraculous Journey of Freddie Yates is a heartwarming story about the true meaning of family.
