Barbara Konstantin made her debut as a writer in 2007. Besides that, she works with ceramics and is the author of screenplays for many films—for example, “Pretty Women” by Cedric Klapisch. She is also the author of four books that have won readers’ sincere love.
Eleven-year-old Tom, the hero of the delightful and cheerful novel “How Tom Found Home, and What Happened Next,” has never been in palaces. He and his mother live in a small trailer; they don’t even have a television—only an old bicycle. His mother has her own problems, and Tom has his: doing homework is easy for him, but getting food and cooking lunch is a little more difficult—especially when there’s barely any money.
By the way, there is also a cat—real, but completely decrepit. It belongs to a strange old lady named Madeleine, who has totally lost her mind. Nothing, Tom will take care of everyone. And what do you think? He’ll manage!
