Die Wahrheit, wie Delly sie sieht

Delly's view of truth feels so genuine and unique for a middle-grade character. I'm curious what motivated the author to focus on this theme in this way.

Her perspective made me reflect on how kids interpret honesty and the world around them. Did others find themselves relating to her way of seeing things?

There are so many whimsical and warm scenes alongside the more serious themes. I wonder how the author decided where to draw that line for middle-grade readers.
