An official visit to Prague takes a strange turn. The naughty granddaughter of Princess Libusha casts a spell on Monkeyji, and the only one who can help is Shemeek – the snow white horse who sleeps behind a rock at Wysherad, dreaming of the world. But to reach Shemeek, Aditi and her friends must first deal with rude Sir Sparrow, and get past Old Fiery Blue, the good-hearted dragon intent on a good fight. A popular legend is woven into this unusual adventure in the Czech Republic. There is action and drama, but by the end of it there are also questions: Who finally wins? And can a problem be a solution? With her usual light touch, the author subtly infuses the ordinary and everyday with new depth in the eighth book in the series.
Poses the ethics of truth and falsehood
Aditi and her friends Monkeyji, Beautiful Ele and Sibil the Ant are visiting Prague when suddenly Monkeyji is unable to speak. It takes them some time to find out that she has been cursed by Princess Libusha’s grand-daughter so that she cannot speak the truth. Youngindiabooks.com
