When he admits he has none, she slips away.Tomek is desperate to follow the mysterious girl, and so he sets out on an incredible adventure. To find the upside down river, he must journey through strange and wondrous places: the Forest of Oblivion where monstrous bears roam, a meadow of deadly scented flowers, a long-hidden island cursed by a witch, and beyond . . .A million-copy bestseller in France, this beloved fantasy story is at last published in English for the very first time.Translated by Ros Schwartz
