Sobre IBD

En la playa, frente a una roca de Sandy Cove, Nueva Escocia, fue descubierto un hombre misterioso de origen desconocido. Más adelante lo llamaron 'Jerome' debido al extraño sonido que logró pronunciar y que sonaba algo así como 'Jerum'. No tenía piernas y tenía los muñones vendados. El hombre sobrevivió con la ayuda de varias familias que lo cuidaron a lo largo de los años. Finalmente, murió el 12 de abril de 1912. Inspirado por la historia real de este hombre mudo y sin piernas que fue encontrado en 1863 y por sus dos perritos Corgis galeses de Cardigan, el autor Peter Leibert presenta su primer libro ilustrado para niños, 'Jerome'. 'Jerome' gira en torno a la amistad construida entre un hombre perdido y dos perros. En este cuento, dos Corgis, Copper y Andy, son los que descubren a Jerome en la playa. Alimentan y cuidan al hombre y finalmente revelan su identidad ficticia.
