About the Author
Paul Biegel was one of Europe's most acclaimed and best-loved storytellers, and the author of more than fifty books for children. Born in the Netherlands in 1925, he studied law but worked as a comic-strip writer before writing his first novel, The Golden Guitar, in 1960. He wrote at a rate of almost a book year for nearly forty years, producing timeless fantastical tales of dwarves, princesses, witches, robbers and talking animals. The King of the Copper Mountains and The Little Captain are also available from Pushkin Children's Books.
Reviews
One of those rare writers who - through the style, composition and "depth" of their books - manage to raise the children's book to the level of literature * De Volkskrant *
