Gustav Frenssen: erst Pfarrer, dann Schriftsteller, mehr als 3 Millionen Exemplare Gesamtauflage, in 16 Sprachen übersetzt, mehrfach als Kandidat für den Literaturnobelpreis gehandelt.

All of the stories about these three children are unhappy and wretched, and this one may be the worst of them all. If you haven't got the stomach for a story that includes a hurricane, a signalling device, hungry leeches, cold cucumber soup, a horrible villain, and a doll named Pretty Penny, then this book will probably fill you with despair. I will continue to record these tragic tales, for that is what I do. You, however, should decide for yourself whether you can possibly endure this miserable story.
