Review: Ich habe das Kinder- bzw. Jugendbuch schnell durchgelesen. Und ich bin so begeistert, dass ich inzwischen beim dritten Band bin. Es geht aber auch schnell, weil es gibt viele Illustrationen, auch ganzseitige, deswegen reduziert sich der Text etwas. Zur Story nur so viel: Ada lebt nach dem Tode ihrer Mutter alleine mit ihrem Vater (also neben zahlreichen Hausgehilfen) in einem großen englischen Landsitz zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts. Und es tauchen zahlreiche berühmte Gäste dort auf. Ada muss zuerst die Distanz zu ihrem Vater überwinden, der sich nach dem Unfalltod seiner Frau komplett in die Poesie zurückgezogen hat. Fazit: Ich bin total begeistert von dem britischen Humor und auch von der Geschichte. Allerdings ist es kein Kinderbuch. Wohl so ab der Pubertät, weil eben das Verhältnis zum Vater schon ganz zentral ist für Ada. Freundschaften sind dann auch ganz wichtig.
Review: Another winner from Chris.

What an utterly delightful book. I read this to my 3 children over the space of a week. It was bought for it's beautiful illustrations and engaging title for my 7 year old daughter (who does not want to be a princess or a mermaid) and is still ever so slightly too much for her to read. However my 9 and 12 year olds were also completely sucked into the story and there was much jostling as to who could see the pictures at any one time. Gripping story, with many literary references for the grown up reader to amuse, and side ramblings that had everyone laughing. We all loved it so much that I went straight out and bought another. These are beautiful on the shelf and I can see them becoming much loved family favourites.
