For years, lovely, timid Esperanza heard rumors of an enchanted garden ruled by a gracious king. But in her bleak village, the people live in darkness and consider the garden a myth, one that is never mentioned except in frightened whispers. Esperanza never set foot outside the village except to visit her wise old friend Prudence. Then one night, a dream changes everything. Esperanza sets out on a dangerous quest to find the mysterious garden. Along the way, she makes surprising new friends, encounters fierce obstacles, meets an unlikely rescuer, and discovers astonishing truths that have long been hidden. Truths that are equally powerful for everyone, even today.
