What to expect
“Enchanting, joyful, full of light and warmth, and glittering with real-world magic.” - Sophie Anderson
Caspia‘s summer is transformed when she discovers a bundle of letters containing ten botanical riddles in this enchanting adventure.
Twelve-year-old Caspia hates big cities, especially one as busy as New York. So she isn’t thrilled by the news that her parents are taking her to stay in Brooklyn. But everything changes when Caspia discovers a bundle of letters, hidden in an old chest of drawers. Each letter contains a ‘green’ riddle, with clues leading to a different plant.
Caspia sets out to solve the riddles and, as she does, she meets friends she could never have imagined and discovers that anywhere can feel like home, if you are just brave enough to put down new roots. The newest adventure from renowned and award winning author of Inkheart and Dragon Rider, Cornelia Funke, weaves magic into every sentence. The perfect, luxurious gift for budding readers - this edition features delicate gold foiling and vivid sprayed edges. The Green Kingdom is perfect for fans of the Greenwild series.
Author of the New York Times bestselling Inkheart series, Cornelia Funke has been published in 53 languages and her books have sold over 22 million copies worldwide. Cornelia lives in Tuscany, Italy, where she regularly hosts artists from around the world. Her old olive farm provides a retreat for creatives to collaborate in surprising and amazing ways.
Tammi Hartung is an ethnobotanist and co-authored alongside Cornelia, providing integral details and knowledge about the leafy citizens of The Green Kingdom. Tammi has more than 40 years experience working with plants, and has published four other books using her botanical expertise.
