The Three Thieves And The Magic Tears A Nana Ida Story [Paperback]

Norfly, Agbertha, and Gango are three thieves who are used to failure. Despite their history of simple plans going awry, they've decided carry out a new daring and difficult mission to kidnap Nana Ida, the most famous and gifted person in all the magical forest. If they succeed, riches of unimaginable proportions await them. Nana Ida, who loves to laugh until she cries, has inherited the remarkable ability to turn her tears into diamonds. Poisoned by greed, the thieves embark on a journey to snatch Nana Ida, take her back to their village, and force her to cry those amazing tears. After all, how much trouble could it be to kidnap a little old lady? To find her, they go to the four corners of the dark forest, where they meet frightening creatures, enchanted fairies and elves, and dangerous terrain and weather conditions. Finally, a diamond-strewn pathway leads them to the old woman-but none of the travelers have any idea of the transformation that is about to occur. In this fantasy, three thieves intent on acquiring riches embark on a quest for redemption in which each must face his or her most horrifying fears. Now only time will tell if any-or all-of them will discover what it takes to survive, before it is too late.
