Sinopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Jim Button and Luke the Engine Driver (original German title: Jim Knopf und Lukas der Lokomotivführer) is a German children fantasy novel written by Michael Ende, published in 1960, where it scored a tremendous success. It received the Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis. Its huge success spawned the sequel Jim Button and the Wild 13 some time after. While the novel and its sequel are supposed to play in about the 20th century, there are many elements mixed in which create an atmosphere of intentional anachronism: China is still an empire, and Native Americans and Eskimos still live in their traditional ways, while ocean liners, telephones, post service, chewing gum and many other modern conveniences are already in use. In addition, there are many fictional locations, like the "Crown of the World", a vast mountain range coloured in red and white stripes, and the Magnetic Cliffs.
