The new picture book by Christine Nöstlinger - A story about storytelling. Every morning at 10, the ferry arrives on the island, and every morning at 10, the dog Max walks down, strolls through the little town, and lies down in the shade in front of the church. What is he looking for there? To anyone who asks him, he happily shares his story - but it sounds different every time: He is fleeing from a lovesick cat, he is waiting for his father who has flown away, he is lying in wait for the pickpocket who stole his wallet. When the girl Gina wants to know why he tells everyone lies, Max is outraged. What he tells are not lies, but - stories! A charming picture book with colorful illustrations by Katharina Sieg. The great storyteller Christine Nöstlinger writes a tale about storytelling; exciting, funny, and touching.
