Erich Kästner is my new favorite author since I have recently discovered him (although this book was written nearly 100 years ago!)
I love these boys, their depth, their joyfulness, honesty and truth. 
Kästner is such a great storyteller, I smile and cry through his books and adore the children. 
I wonder what his childhood was like. :-)
