From his less-than-suitable guardian to the fortune-teller to the elephant which fell through the roof, everybody has a backstory, and all help reunite brother and sister. Peter's search enmeshes a wide cast of characters, where nobody is really a villain. It can be reread and is suitable for most ages. I would definitely recommend buying this story and keeping it forever. At first glance, it’s a children’s story, but once you start focusing on the characters and why they do what they do, the story gets increasingly interesting.

Hope, dreams, and family are what shine through. The story has a faint feel of magic, but it’s not the main focus. Surely the path to Adele would be easier, right? well, until one fell through the roof of the Bliffendorf Opera House. When the fortuneteller told Peter to "follow the elephant," he was perplexed. Lutz, Peter's guardian, insists she is dead, but Peter doesn't believe it. Surely, she could tell him where to find his sister Adele. Instead, Peter spent that coin on a fortuneteller.
