Vindhålet - Berättelser Om Henrietta Och Farbror Titus
Kapten Svedja har seglat till och från Brasilien i 40 år, och hans uttråkade gäspningar är så enorma att det uppstår så kallade vindhål som gör att seglen slaknar. Det enda sättet för passagerarna att förhindra kaptenens gäspningar är att berätta märkvärdiga historier för honom."Vindhålet", som kom ut på tyska för första gången 1956, räknas till en av de mest betydande böckerna inom den tyska barn- och ungdomslitteraturen. Från 8 år.
