Momo by Michael Ende

Momo is a girl that has a special ability to listen. By this I mean when troubled people start talking to Momo, their troubles soon vanish, replaced by a feeling that someone finally understood them, and left them smiling with satisfaction. Because of Momo and her ability, her city had no troubles. But there is always a shadow where this is light. The Time Thieves come to the city to steal peoples' time, for these thieves are nothing, just air, without time. Troubles start when Momo encounters one of these thieves. What will she do to save her city and friends?

Written by best-selling author of The Never Ending Story, Momo is a great example of true friendship and adventure. I recommend this book to all of those above age 9.
