The funny, heart-warming story of two young comrades-in-arms, by the author of Emil and the Detectives

Classic / British English Emil is travelling alone to his grandmother's house in the city. He is carrying money toher from his mother. Then a man on the train steals the money. Emil follows the thief and an exciting adventure begins, with lots of detectives, a lift boy, and a fight in a bank!
