Oh, and there are three guest stars in this adventure: Dog, Boby and Pinchito, the monsters that won the Draw your Monster competition!

ADVENTURE + CRITICAL AWARENESS DEVELOPMENT

Candela and the Mystery of the Open Door When returning from school, Candela always passes in front of a house covered with vine. Candela has always kept her distance, fearfully picking up the pace, but today a disturbing detail has called her attention: the glass door to the balcony on the first floor is ajar. And if that isn’t enough, she also seems to hear a whispering voice.

Is there anyone in the house? Curiosity can be stronger than fear, and Candela obeys her instinct and crosses the threshold to find out what or who is enclosed within its dilapidated walls.
