Where in the library is the reading?

In the PopUp Saal of the Amerika-Gedenkbibliothek on Blücherplatz.

Do we have to pay anything?

No. The library welcomes a voluntary donation and suggests about €5, but it's optional.

Is my 6-year-old too young?

The library recommends it for ages 8 and up. Part of the hour is a conversation about writing and the films, which suits kids who read the books themselves.

About

Margit Auer, the author behind The School of Magical Animals, reads scenes from the new volume 17, "Hoch hinaus!" Then she talks with host Claudia Kühn about where her ideas come from, her working life as a writer, and how it felt to see her books turned into films. It's a Library Day event, best for kids who already follow the series. Stay afterward for the book signing.
