Jim Knopf and his friend Lukas the engine driver, with their locomotive Emma, have to deal with the Wild 13, a gang of pirates who are said to terrorize the seas. In the sequel to Jim Button and Luke the Engine Driver, they find out what is behind the gang's identity and set out on a new adventure. Michael Ende fills the story with dragons, strange islands and humor.
It suits children who like long adventure stories and adults who read aloud. It is a warm story about loyalty and courage.
Practical, outward-looking, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Escapist Adventurer. Which reader are you?
