Who Stole the Words?

"Who Stole the Words?" is a story about seven-year-old Nökkö, a talkative girl who lives in an apartment building in the same courtyard as Herta's grill. When her parents go to the hospital to bring home a new baby, Herta becomes the babysitter. Nökkö is not happy about getting a baby brother and hides in the courtyard's paper bin - where she finds an announcement for a writing competition. The prize is a one-person trip to Tangier, and Nökkö immediately knows who it's for: her new baby brother. Let him stay there too.

With the help of her imaginary friend Möhkis, the story is written and wins - but then it gets stolen. There went the princesses, princes, and half a kingdom. Who steals Nökkö's words, and how can they be recovered before the baby comes home and starts crying?
