Description
(Short description)
Flo sieht aus wie ein Vampir und Carolin wie ein Honigkuchen, wenn sie lacht. Wer die beiden kennt, der weiß, worüber die anderen Kinder tuscheln. Doch niemand außer Carolin hat Flo bisher gefragt, warum er die schönsten Sommernachmittage im Keller der verlassenen Ölfabrik verbringt Und als die beiden auf einer Bergwanderung plötzlich Hilferufe hören, ahnt Flo nicht, dass er Carolins Vertrauen auf eine harte Probe stellen wird. Eine packende Geschichte voller Wärme und Zuneigung zu Kindern, die anders sind.
(Text)
Tom looks like a vampire and Catherine like a Cheshire cat when she laughs. Everybody who knows these two understands, what the other children are whispering about. However, nobody but Catherine has asked Tom yet why he spends the most beautiful summer afternoons in the basement of the abandoned oil factory ... And on a mountain hike, when the two of them suddenly hear cries for help, Tom doesn't suspect that he would put Catherine's trust to the test. An absorbing story full of warmth and affection towards children who are not like others.
