Tatjana Hauptmann & Lukas Hartmann
All die verschwundenen Dinge

English Title: All the Missing Things

The little plastic dinosaur – gone. Karl’s left goalkeeper’s glove – missing. The new umbrella cover – lost without a trace. Karl is always losing things. ›You have to start looking after your things better!‹ say his parents. That is what Kasper says too. Kasper is Karl’s best friend – a hand puppet who comes to life when he puts his hand in it. But that does not help Karl. Things come to a head when he loses Kasper in the park. Karl sets out on an expedition for somewhere, there must exist a place where all the lost things end up. And Karl does not mean the lost property office. One night, under a full moon, his little dog Timo puts him on the right track... An adventurous story about how you sometimes have to lose (almost) everything to find the thing that’s most important.
