Petzi #36

A charming entry in Carlsen's long-running German-language series for young readers, this 2001 volume finds Petzi and his friends gathered outside a curious stone structure with a face-like doorway — a hen, a dark-furred companion, and the rest of the familiar crew all looking on with wide-eyed curiosity. The cover art by Vilhelm Hansen radiates the gentle warmth and playful line work that has made this series so beloved with children. "Petzi und die Gespenster" (Petzi and the Ghosts) promises exactly the kind of lighthearted adventure that keeps young readers turning pages.
