Erich K舖tner, writer, poet and journalist, was born in Dresden in 1899. His first children's book, Emil and the Detectives, was published in 1929 and has since sold millions of copies around the world and been translated into around 60 languages. After the Nazis took power in Germany, K舖tner's books were burnt and he was excluded from the writers' guild. He won many awards, including the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Award in 1960. He died in 1974.

Translated from the German by Anthea Bell.

Walter Trier was an acclaimed cartoonist and illustrator, and K舖tner's collaborator on more than a dozen children's books.
