Haifischzähne

Touching yet told with humor, relatable and with an ending that one wishes for both oneself and the characters - wonderful reading material not just for children.

Once around the IJsselmeer by bike. 360 kilometers in one day and one night. A crazy idea, but Atlanta is fiercely determined. What else is there to do when the next day could bring terrible test results? It's frustrating that she collides right at the beginning with Finley, who is also running away from something. Or is that more of a stroke of luck? In any case, they continue together, equipped with water bottles, twelve cheese sandwiches, and shark teeth. Because it's best not to face fate unarmed.

A girl who is worried about her mother, a boy who is so angry with his mother that he wishes he could avoid seeing her, and a bike trip after which everything falls back into place! Rarely are friendship and family described so authentically, so connected to life and the characters, and despite all the difficulties, so full of joy as in Anna Woltz's work!.
