"Wittily perceptive social criticism and haunting, surrealistic imagery... This all-ages delight deserves rescue and is ideal for classroom (or bedtime) read-alouds--especially if the grown-ups pay attention along with the children." --"Kirkus"

"A German Classic returns to print"--"Publishers Weekly"
"A wonderful new translation with simple, gorgeous illustrations by Marcel Dzama. A masterpiece." --"The Globe and Mail"
"If there was only one children's book I could put on the list of must-read, yet hardly known, children's books, it would have to be Momo. I fell in love with the book, despite the fact that when I first went to read it, I assumed I wouldn't like it at all!"--"LitKidz"
"A joyful read."--About.com

Reseña del editor:

The Neverending Story is Michael Ende’s best-known book, but Momo?published six years earlier?is the all-ages fantasy novel that first won him wide acclaim. After the sweet-talking gray men come to town, life becomes terminally efficient. Can Momo, a young orphan girl blessed with the gift of listening, vanquish the ashen-faced time thieves before joy vanishes forever? With gorgeous new drawings by Marcel Dzama and a new translation from the German by Lucas Zwirner, this all-new 40th anniversary edition celebrates the book’s first U.S. publication in over 25 years.
