Description was written before the event
Emil travels alone for the first time during summer holidays to visit his grandmother, Aunt Martha, and cousin Pony Hütchen in Berlin. His mother gives him 1,200 € for his grandmother. On the train, he meets Mr. Grundeis, who seems friendly - but when Emil falls asleep, the man steals the money from his suit.
What follows is a thrilling chase through Berlin: Emil gets help from Gustav with his horn, Pony Hütchen, and Hermann, nicknamed Professor. In the end, the young detectives expose the thief - Emil returns home not only with a generous reward for his mother, but also with many new friends.
