If Mrs Tischbein had known the adventures her son Emil would have in Berlin, she'd never have let him go. Unfortunately, when his seven pounds goes missing on the train, Emil is determined to get it back - and when he teams up with the detectives he meets in Berlin, it's just the start of a marvellous money-retrieving adventure.
A classic and influential story, Emil and the Detectives remains an enthralling read.

Review:
"First published in 1929, this is an exciting story about a boy who loses some money and, along with a group of new friends, manages to corner the thief." (Michael Rosen S Magazine, Sunday Express)
"The perfect introduction to the world of fictional crime detection" (Independent)
"The main pleasure of the book is in the way in which it plays to the fantasy of omnipotence in a child: that a team of kids could really organise themselves into a team of detectives and catch a thief" (Michael Rosen Guardian)
