Upea kuvitus ja ihastuttava hiirinäkökulmainen katsaus historiaan, aikaan, jolloin hehkulamppu ja sukellusvene olivat vielä uusia keksintöjä.

Love Kuhlmann's books. Beautifully illustrated and full of great historical content.

A little bit informative but not a very exciting read. My 9 year enjoyed it but it was kind of blah. We did enjoy the illustrations.

In this adorable story Pete, a little mouse, seeks the professor of the University of Mice to help him solve the mystery of one of his ancestors. After working together to gather more information around this mystery, the professor agrees to help Pete on his journey to find the missing treasure. They work together to build a device that will take them to the bottom of the ocean where the sunken ship is. What will they find?

I thought this book was very well done. I was completely enamored with the illustrations in this story. They are beautiful and add to the story itself. I loved that there were pages with no text and where the illustration covered the spread of the pages. The details are stunning and without these pages, the story wouldn't be the same.

The book is written in short chapters which I find children always enjoy. This book would be great for younger kids when read aloud or older kids to read independently. This book was nominated for the Batchelder Award in 2019.

Album pour la jeunesse. De très belles et nombreuses illustrations, pleines de références pour ceux qui gardent l’œil ouvert!

Dieses Buch ist einfach wunderschön illustriert und sowohl für Jung, als auch für (und vielleicht sogar noch ein wenig mehr) Alt ❤️ Die Bilder sind Kunstwerke für sich und haben einen ganz eigenen Charme. Die Farbgebung der Bilder und die „rustikalere“ Aufmachung des Buches sind etwas ganz besonderes und wirken dadurch überhaupt nicht typisch „kindlich“. Wenn man sich einzelne Bilder in der Wohnung aufhängen würde, würde niemand darauf kommen, dass es sich dabei um Zeichnungen für eine jüngere Zielgruppe handeln würde. Die Geschichte ist auch sehr interessant und ich mag die Thematik der Erfindungen und Forscher, welche hier auf jeder Seite zu finden ist. Auf jeden Fall werde ich noch die anderen Bücher des Autors lesen!

We are reading these in reverse order, which has actually added a fun twist!

I'm pretty sure I will never be disappointed by a Torben Kuhlmann book, he is such a great painter and writer and even if his stories follow more or less the same pattern every time, they are such a pleasure for the eyes that the story matters till a certain point.

Sono abbastanza sicura che difficilmente potrei non apprezzare uno dei libri di Torben Kuhlmann perché lui é un grande disegnatore e anche se le sue storie seguono spesso la stessa trama, sono un piacere per gli occhi tanto da far scivolare tutto il resto in secondo piano.

THANKS NETGALLEY FOR THE PREVIEW!
