Lukas Hartmann
So eine lange Nase

English Title: Such a Long Nose

Pit and his sister Lena are bored on holiday in Greece. Their parents are always quarrelling, and there are no other children on the beach. But then Pit and Lena have the good fortune to find the wizard Zervan. He has been hiding away from the world on a tiny island for two hundred and fifty years – or rather, he has been hiding his nose. Because it is so huge and fiery red that it takes Pit and Lena’s breath away when they first see it. Zervan is terribly ashamed of this protuberance, which a wicked rival has stuck on his face by a magic spell. Lena feels sorry for him, and has a brilliant idea. That is the start of an adventurous journey on a flying carpet. A story for children of 8 and upwards, told by Pit and Lena themselves. »Such a Long Nose« has been sold to: Estrofes & Versos (Portugal)

»Lukas Hartmann puts himself in the place of the children –as many of the best writers of children’s books have done ever since Kästner’s ›Lottie and Lisa‹ – and tells the story from their point of view. Both boys and girls will find role models here on which they can project their own feelings, thoughts and desires.«Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

»Lukas Hartmann’s ability to see the world through a child’s eyes is outstanding.«Hits for Kids
