Praise for The Forgotten Book:
"A satisfying and engrossing outing, this German import will leave
readers thinking long after they've turned the final pages." --The
Bulletin "A clever book with winks at Jane Austen novels, this
boarding school story will also delight fantasy fans." --School
Library Journal
The Forgotten Book German Edition:
"Gl�ser writes in the tradition of beloved YA writers, such as Enid
Blyton, Roald Dahl, Susan Cooper and J. K. Rowling. Her style is
light and witty, and she is able to create a self-contained world
that every reader will long to visit. . . . Jane Austen's Pride and
Prejudice may have been the starting point for Gl�ser, but she has
turned the old material of enemies-turned-lovers into a charming
new story. This book is an unexpected delight and a true
page-turner." --New Books in German
