Story of Gumluck and the Portrait Thief. Book 4 (en Inglés) - Adam Rex

The story of Gumluck continues! Dive into the artfully funny fourth installation in the critically acclaimed chapter book series from New York Times bestselling author Adam Rex.

The queen's portrait has been stolen from the museum. Who took it? The terrible troll? The prideful prince? The raiding raccoon? Gumluck the Wizard, his faithful friend Helvetica the Raven, her three clever chicks, and Butterscotch, the little ghost who haunts Gumluck's hair, are on the case.

Gumluck is a wonderful wizard, but sometimes he spoils his spells—like when he tries to make a painting but ends up making a monster by mistake!—and that spells trouble. Will Gumluck and his friends catch the thief? There's only one way to find out.

With delightful illustrations and a lighthearted mix of fantasy and fairytale elements, this madcap romp celebrates the artist in each of us as everyone's favorite bumbling noodlehead does his best to save the day.

JUST RIGHT FOR NEW READERS: With simple sentences, engaging illustrations, and big themes explored with humor and heart, this series is the perfect choice for newly independent readers who love magical tales.
