An absolute must for all fans of Cornelia Funke!
This beautifully refurbished omnibus volume of stories by best-selling author Cornelia Funke is almost too beautiful to give it away. In her popular style of writing the author leads her readers into a magic land of stories in which little bookworms, attic ghosts and various other heroes live. Imagine the story of Sten, the boy who doesn’t really like to read. On the attic he finds his grandfather’s old books – all dusty, but reminding him of his grandpa – and there is the funny looking little creature that comes out of an old box: a Book-Eater (a friendly being that looks like a mixture between a cat and a guinea pig). It is very hungry and starts eating the books right away and the good thing about it: it tells Sten about all the yummy adventure stories and the exiting thrillers it has eaten. The imaginative stories by C. Funke celebrate the imagination and fantasy of children in all their facets. The reader will encounter the adventure, excitement and humour that is linked to reading. The numerous small and large illustrations make this book not only fun to listen to but also to look at. A magnificent new cover illustration full of atmosphere by the popular illustrator of children's books Sybille Hein, half-linen bound and with a ribbon page marker, makes this omnibus volume a very special treasure.
