"Once upon a time there was a terrible monster called the Ickabog. Or so the
story goes . . .
Prepare for a legendary adventure from one of the world's greatest
storytellers J.K. Rowling, now featuring striking illustrations from awardwinning
illustrator Ben Mantle.
Once upon a time there was a tiny kingdom called C ornucopia, as rich in happiness as it
was in gold, and famous for its food. From the delicate cream cheeses of Kurdsburg to the
Hopes-of-Heaven pastries of C houxville, each was so delicious that people wept with joy
as they ate them.
But even in this happy kingdom, a monster lurks. Legend tells of a fearsome creature
living far to the north in the Marshlands... the Ickabog. Some say it breathes fire, spits
poison, and roars through the mist as it carries off wayward sheep and children alike.
Some say it's just a myth...
And when that myth takes on a life of its own, casting a shadow over the kingdom, two
children - best friends Bert and Daisy - embark on a great adventure to untangle the truth
and find out where the real monster lies, bringing hope and happiness to C ornucopia once
more."
