Jando ́s modern fairy tale tells us that even nowadays you can believe in miracles. "Star Rider" is a poetic story for youngsters and adults.It ́s a book about friendship, humanity and the realization of dreams.Praise from press: "With Star rider - Small stars shine forever North German writer Jando has created a small and moving modern fairytale. Engaging texts and nuggets of wisdom, which are reminiscent of Antoine de Saint Exupéry's Little prince, and Antjeca's magical illustrations will leave a lasting impression on the reader."-BILD-A fairytale, comforting and healing reading experience. A story which gets you thinking and radiates hope andassurance." --NWZ-"You have to rediscover the childhood anarchy within you to be able to ride on the stars."It's not a matter of having your own childlike chaos but of rediscovering it and again making it your own. On the other hand you are reminded of the much-quoted line from Antoine de Saint Exupéry's The little prince: "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." This view from within is further developed by Jando in Star riders, resulting in a veritable and poetic nurturing of the heart. After his first novel Wind dreams, with Star riders the author has produced another wonderful, poetic book which I can fully recommend. But not just that: you should recommend a good book, urge your friends to read a very good book - and give the especially important books to your best friends.-Eselsohren: The book magazin-A wonderfully poetic story, a modern fairytale which puts readers very much in mind of The little prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry, causing them to pause for thought and question themselves, their dreams and their desires. A book for reading and philosophising over, for contemplation, wonder and amazement. Highly recommended.-Sensa Magazin-About the Bestseller-Author: The pseudonym JANDO stands for a real Northern German: Jens Koch (born 1970) He spins yarns on his extended walking tours along the seaside and on his favourite islands as well as aroundthe Bad Zwischenahn Lake.
