A moving debut work about a young girl and her search for a best friend…

What do you do when everything goes wrong in the search for a best girl friend? You simply start a new life, like 10-year-old Elfreda Snarrenberg, who writes everything in her diary – full of humor, wit and exciting as well!

Who wants to have a best friend named Elfreda? Nobody. Except maybe Hubert. But he doesn’t count. On her search, Elfie makes one blunder after the next – stupid Leonie, the move with the cemetery, the disastrous gold robbery at the old folks’ home… And this summer, where everything goes wrong, Hubert decides to start looking for his father. Elfreda, Hubert and his hamster Deedee end up in the pizzeria after a wild goose chase, where there is an important turning point in Elfreda’s life.
