Written in 1973, this book by the renowned German author Michael Ende sounds more relevant than ever today. It tells the story of an amazing girl named Momo, who possessed a rare gift – the ability to listen to others. Dressed in a men's suit jacket with rolled-up sleeves, with the Flower of Time and a tortoise under her arm, she engages in an unequal battle against the cruel world of the Grey Gentlemen, a world of pragmatists and materialists who have forgotten about true human values, kindness, and compassion for their neighbor.
The book is illustrated with the author's drawings.
