I have read Momo, by Michael Ende. I chose this book because in my childhood I had read the Neverending story written by him and it seemed a fascinating book to me.

I believe that the whole story was really original. I had never read something like it before –it was different and strange, but also interesting. It is supposed to be specific for children; however, I think anyone could enjoy it, because the novel talks about essential points in our lives, such as the importance of our time, which we don’t usually value, or freedom and friendship, which brings us true happiness.

My favourite one was the main character, Momo, because although she was a nice and innocent girl, when her friends were in danger she could be strong-willed and face all her fears to fight for them.

The characters are not very real, and I think they don’t try to, because this story is a fairy tail in which everything is exaggerated: the situations, the people, etc. On the other hand, all of them have real parts in their personalities, like being practical or being a dreamer, for instance.

Most of the characters don’t really change during the story. The one that changes a bit is Momo, who learned to be determined and strong the moment she had to give the time back to people, because it had been stolen from them.

I would recommend it, because it wasn’t difficult to read and I had a good time with it.
