The Boy Who Loved the World
If Breath doesn’t come up with a way to bring his mother and father together soon, he’ll never be born
It sounds like the most impossible mission ever: Breath, a spirit who resembles an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, has to ensure that his future mother and father fall in love. Otherwise he will never exist for real.

Tjibbe Veldkamp
Tjibbe Veldkamp (1962) has written both for the very youngest readers and for young adults, and everything he writes is well worth reading. He studied psychology in Groningen and then started writing for children.
De jongen die van de wereld hield is probably his most popular book, winning the Woutertje Pieterse Prijs and de Nienke van Hichtumprijs awards as well as a Zilveren Griffel.
