Bookroo's summary
In a quest to escape poverty, a man becomes Doctor All-Knowing, tasked with uncovering a thief for a wealthy patron. With his daughter Maggie's clever assistance, can he solve the mystery and secure their future? As they navigate deception and danger, the stakes rise. Will their wits be enough to earn the reward and transform their lives? Dive into this intriguing tale of cunning and courage.
From the publisher
How clever are you? And how sharp-sighted? Are you as clever as Doctor All-Knowing – keen to change his sad life (and feed his poor daughter, Maggie)? Are you, like Doctor All-Knowing, sharp-eyed enough to search out the thieves who’ve been stealing a rich man’s money from right under his nose? Good! You are just the one to watch Maggie as she cleverly, sharp-sightedly helps her father earn a four-course reward. The Brothers Grimm rarely told so dross a tale as this little-known one, briskly retold here by Doris Orgel and animated to perfection by Alexandra Boiger.
