Una novela preciosa, tremendamente humana y emocionante, que describe las peripecias de una nina alemana de nueve anos desde que es dada en adopcion por su madre hasta el final de la II Guerra Mundial.

Erase una vez un pueblo donde las noches eran largas y la muerte contaba su propia historia. En el pueblo vivia una nina que queria leer, un hombre que tocaba el acordeon y un joven judio que escribia bellos cuentos para escapar del horror de la guerra. Al cabo de un tiempo, la nina se convirtio en una ladrona que robaba libros y regalaba palabras. Con estas palabras se escribio una historia hermosa y cruel que ahora ya es una novela inolvidable.
