Blinking Annabella

As a newcomer, Klaus Teddy must first learn how hard it is to be accepted into a close-knit community. But the ice soon breaks and Annabella, Leo and Klaus are as thick as thieves. And they have to be, too.

Because Lena's such a wild one, you have to be prepared for anything. Bicycle trips, pets tumbling from the bike basket, battles with flying dragons and the first day at school – all rather harmless affairs. But when Lena starts drawing red hearts everywhere, things get really exciting. All of a sudden, Annabella, Leo and Klaus are completely written off. Stefan is the name of Lena's great crush, and Leo, the man about town, has to explain to Annabella and Klaus why Lena behaves so strangely. Leo knows about these things. Years ago, he found his true love Lila, and lost her again. But what's this? The lion lady in Stefan's arms is the spitting image of Lila!
