Horrified eight-year-old Sammy has just learned that the family is about to leave London and
move to another city. A catastrophe! Away from grandparents and friends? Why new friends and a
new school anyway? The idea of the new and unfamiliar is terrifying. Suddenly Aunt Nova
appears and sits down next to Sammy who observes the movers from a hidden place under a
snow-covered oak tree. Nova tells the story of Maggy called Mag who had to move as well even
to a foreign country. Slowly but steady she draws Sammy into Mag's world coming with big
surprises. This story begins with a stubborn 'No!'. Will it end with a convinced 'Yes' ? What
connects a child in London with the city of Dresden and with Canada? What has a wizard to do
with a blizzard? How is it possible to sleep in the same room with whales without getting wet
and what the heck are 'pirate-mitts' Sammy is talking about? Find it out in this funny
adventurous but also eye-opening story about facing the fear of changes. Book available in
Hardcover and Paperback also in German.
