Momo
*The Neverending Story* is Michael Ende's best-known book, but *Momo,* published six years earlier, is the all-ages fantasy novel that first won him wide acclaim. After the sweet-talking gray men come to town, life becomes terminally efficient. Can Momo, a young orphan girl blessed with the gift of listening, vanquish the ashen-faced time thieves before joy vanishes forever?

This was a lovely book. It’s actually written for children; early teens maybe but the message it conveys is one that applies to all ages. By writing the story as a fantasy, Michael Ende draws the reader in to a tale of little Momo , the engaging and charismatic heroine whose simplicity and honesty challenges and overcomes the evil and wickedness of the time thieves.
