«Le 35 mai» is the adventure and fantasy novel by Erich Kästner, published by Hachette in paperback (157 pages, in French).
Conrad spends Thursdays with his uncle, the pharmacist Krendelgut, but on the 35th of May a circus horse takes them to Oceania through a wardrobe. In the Land of the Inverted World, trees bear cakes, hens lay eggs with ham, and unbearable parents receive education; the journey ends in the South Seas.
The novel was originally published in German in 1932, under the title «Der fünfunddreißigste Mai oder Konrad reitet in die Südsee».
For young readers aged 9 to 12 who enjoy zany adventures and fantastic humour.
Emil Erich Kästner was a German writer, poet, screenwriter and satirist, known primarily for his humorous, socially astute poems and for children's books including Emil and the Detectives and Lisa and Lottie.
