«L'enlèvement de la bibliothécaire» is the children's novel by Margaret Mahy, published by Gallimard Jeunesse in paperback (56 pages, in French).
Five bandits kidnap a librarian to demand a ransom from the town council, but their hostage proves far cleverer than they expected: with her wit and library knowledge she turns captivity into an adventure full of humour and unexpected twists, illustrated by Quentin Blake.
Part of the Folio Cadet collection, translated from English into French by Raymond Farré and Marie Saint-Dizier.
For young readers aged 8 to 10 who are starting out with short novels, with humour and adventure.
Margaret Mahy was a New Zealand author of children's and young adult books. Many of her story plots have strong supernatural elements but her writing concentrates on the themes of human relationships and growing up. She wrote more than 100 picture books, 40 novels and 20 collections of short stories. At her death she was one of thirty writers to win the biennial, international Hans Christian Andersen Medal for her "lasting contribution to children's literature".
