Shaban, hijo del Mago de Esmirna, emprende su viaje iniciático para convertirse en mago: comienza así su ascensión a la Gran Montaña, donde ha de pasar su primer día solo. Allí, en donde todo es posible, tendrá experiencias insólitas porque el tiempo y el espacio exteriores pierden su valor.

"En el bosque, debajo de la tierra, a través de las nubes o las flores, surcando los ríos o los mares o bajando los montes, se escucha un poderoso rumor; son las criaturas que habitan el universo y cuya presencia se siente a medida que se avanza entre las estrofas de este poema hasta convertirse en un rugido incontenible."--P.

Animals hide to avoid being eaten or to sneak up on animals they want to eat. This amazing book introduces children to some basic science concepts. Fascinating photographs feature animals that can change color, or that have different shapes and patterns, so that they can blend into their surroundings. A special section also features animals that do not need to hide.
