Endres the Merchant's Son
Endres, der Kaufmannssohn
Endres, the young son of a merchant, eagerly collects the various coins his father has brought back home from a trading journey. As the oldest son in the family, he will soon be following in his father’s footsteps. We learn all about what the life of a Hanseatic merchant’s son consists of, leading up to the time when Endres is ready for a journey to his uncle’s house in faraway Riga to learn the family trade. We participate in the daily life of Endres’s family, explore with him the old trading house where the family and their servants live and work, and roam with him and his best friend Jos through the medieval Hanseatic city. Although Endres has inherited a much higher position in society than his friend Jos, the son of an ordinary blacksmith, he nevertheless also lives closely with the challenges of the times: sickness, death, and the constant threat of pirates (like the legendary Störtebeker) to the trading ships.
Endres is the new historical non-fiction picture book by Anke Bär, who was nominated for the Jugendliteraturpreis for her debut book, Wilhelms Reise, in 2013. The story of Endres, a merchant’s son, vividly portrays late medieval life in the Hanseatic city of Lübeck with the support of detailed illustrations. What was school like in the Middle Ages? What did people eat? How was sickness dealt with? And what is a Dornse?

Cherry Thief
Kirschendiebe
Lotte lives in a forester's house, although her father isn't a forester. The reason is that the war took the life of her cousin Knut's father as well as an eye from the teacher Fettig. Since the horrible Ms. Gressmann has been running the forester's house, many things have been forbidden, such as picking cherries. But Lotte won't let that keep her down.
If you want cherries, you just have to steal them.
And she thinks it's ridiculous that only the boys are allowed to wear Lederhosen.

Rotraut Susanne Berner's Treasure Kingdom at Night
Nighttime in the Treasure Kingdom: Humans and animals are sleeping. Most of them, that is. Andrea, for one, cannot sleep because Thomas, who lives on the next floor, is taking a shower. Nico, on the other hand, is fast asleep in his cage, in the dark under its cloth cover. Outside, bats are flitting about, and a hedgehog shuffles through the grass. There's an all-night reading marathon taking place at the Public Library, and in the upper floor, the terrariums of the reptile exposition emit a greenish glow. At the station the night train is ready for departure.
Even though not all that many people are about at night, yet there is a lot going on in this warm summer night. Under cover of darkness, a burglar breaks into a dentist's surgery. Will he make his escape undetected? A night-watchman and his dog are on their round patrolling the local department store. Yet the highlight and concluding episode of this particular adventure must surely be the big festival in the municipal park, complete with fireworks.
As in her four previous books set in the Treasure Kingdom, Rotraut Susanne Berner has once more come up with a cornucopia of little stories, rich in well-observed detail, an atmospheric nocturne that will make for splendid bedtime reading, for big and small alike.
