Omnia - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

All you have to do is imagine—the Omnia superstore has anything you could ever dream of.

Where else but Omnia would a boy go looking to replace a one-of-a-kind stuffed bunny that happens to be his baby sister’s favorite toy? Scrolling through the online retailer’s extensive inventory, Nico finds what looks like a perfect match, but the item is lost somewhere in the vast Omnia warehouse. He doesn’t believe it, so he stows away in a shipment being returned to the warehouse to search for the bunny himself.

Nico quickly gets stranded on the island of Omnia, a fantastical place that does much more than sell everyday items. It is a hub for a business with intergalactic reach, and while stray visitors to Omnia are welcomed warmly, they are not permitted to leave, ever.

The adventure of a lifetime awaits Nico as he searches for the beloved toy and tries to find a way to return home.

Biografía del autor

Laura Gallego was born in Valencia (Spain) in 1977. When she was eleven, she started to work on her first novel together with a friend. That book was never published, but she always dreamed of being a writer. Finally, at the age of twenty-one, her novel Finis Mundi won a literary competition (El Barco de Vapor). That is how she managed to get published for the first time, although it was actually the fourteenth book she wrote. Since then, she hasn’t stopped writing. She has had over thirty books published in Spain, most of them novels for young adults with a fantasy theme, and her work has been translated into many languages, including English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Korean.

In 2011, Gallego received the Cervantes Chico Award recognizing her entire works and in 2012 her novel Donde los árboles cantan won the National Award for Children’s and Young Adult Literature.
