Line 1: {{creator}} {{Needs Image}} '''Michael Ende''' (1929 - 1995) was a German fantasy writer, best known in the English-speaking world for ''[[The Neverending Story (~~Literature~~novel)\|The Neverending Story]]''. His other novels include ''[[~~Jim Button (Literature)\|~~Jim Button]] and Luke the Engine Driver'' and its sequel, ''Jim Button and the Wild 13'', ''[[~~Momo (Literature)\|~~Momo]]'', which offers a whimsical answer to the question "Why is it, when I have all these time-saving devices, I still never have any free time?", and ''[[~~The Night of Wishes (Literature)\|~~The Night of Wishes]]'', a wordplayful comic novel. [[He Also Did]] some other stuff, like translating [[Lewis Carroll]]'s "The Hunting of the Snark" into German.
