The Exchange Student / But Jasper Came Instead

  • Written by the anarchist among children’s book authors (Süddeutsche Zeitung)
  • Nominated for the German Youth Literature Award
  • To honour the 85th birthday of the famous author Christine Nöstlinger 

Oh my goodness, student exchange!

Ewald did not imagine the student exchange to be like that! He expected the well-behaved Tom from England to arrive, but instead Tom’s brother Jasper comes into Ewald’s family, and his strange behaviour scares them all. ‘Jasper, the devil’ does not care about manners, stuffs himself with tons of fries, gets up really late, gambles away all his money in slot
machines, and steals chocolate at the supermarket. And then, he even falls in love!
