A review by williamriverdale
Emil and the Detectives by Walter Trier, Erich Kästner

5.0

Charming, charming book. It does well everything a children's book should do. It does not look down upon the young reader's intelligence nor try to waste his or her time with rambling gobbledegook. It's a tale of adventure, of friendship, and of perseverance. All characters that burst upon the pages of this wonderful story have their own personalities, all different, all vibrant. I shall not disclose them to you, but leave you to find them as I found them. Go with Emil on a adventure.

"Now for it!"
