Every weekend, Anna alternates spending time with her parents. One day, a tiny dwarf wearing a purple hat, the size of a fingernail, crawled into Anna's head through her ear. Anna was terrified, crying and yelling for her father to check her ears, but the dwarf didn't come out. From then on, the dwarf lived inside Anna's head. The dwarf knew all of Anna's thoughts and commented on them without reservation, always offering various suggestions. What should Anna do? Could she accept the dwarf's opinions? How did Anna's parents react to the dwarf in her head? This book has won various children's literature awards in German-speaking countries.
