Review: Multi generational book that everyone should read! - I absolutely love this book. This is a multi generational story. My 3rd grade teacher read this to our class. I don't think there is a kid that had her class over the years that doesn't remember this book but by a different name The Grey Gentleman. This is a easier reading version of that book but the story is the same. I bought this so I could read to my kids and was so surprised that the innocent child in me remembered the story one way, however reading it as an adult has a whole different meaning. It makes you think. In my opinion this should be required reading in school. It's right up there with The Giver or even the The Giving Tree. A book with a message. You won't be disappointed. This was originally written in German by the same author as The Never Ending Story. It's been translated into Spanish. But trying to to find an English version hasn't been an easy find, so I was elated when my sister found it here and bought it to read to her son. Then I bought it to read to my children. Review: Nice story - Lovely story. Was delivered much earlier than scheduled and in great shape. Very pleased with this purchase. ## Features - New - Mint Condition - Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon - Guaranteed packaging - No quibbles returns ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #84,198 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,641 in Teen & Young Adult Fantasy #3,057 in Fantasy for Children | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 883 Reviews | ## Images ![Momo - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Dnj8pVEJL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Multi generational book that everyone should read! *by H***Y on May 8, 2021* I absolutely love this book.

Very pleased with this purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Man In Grey *by T***Y on December 3, 2009* After glancing at some information about this book online, I still had no idea what it was about, so I decided to read it. You might think it's about a homeless girl or a turtle or something upon seeing it at first, but it's really about a paradoxical idea that the more time you try to save, the more of it you will waste. It has what some would call a regressive message no doubt, and it's a message I somewhat agree with. I particuarly like how you don't really get a good grasp of the plot until you're well past the halfway point of the book, and with the exception of the "Make-Believe" digression chapter, you want to read on to figure out where the story's going. It's good at leaving you in the dark just enough to keep you reading, no matter how much someone tells you about the book beforehand. While not quite as imaginative as The Neverending Story, Momo is just as well-written, and just as philosophical. The characters Beppo and Guido are developed very well, but Professor Hora reminds me of Father New Year from Ende's "Night of Wishes," which has some mediocrity to it. The men in grey villians are wonderful. I had such vivid visuals of their behavior throughout the book, particuarly their evil selling pitch on the benefits of "saving" time and their mad scramble at the end for anything that might give them life. Sometimes I feel like a man in grey, keeping busier than I should to save something I really can't save. What can I do but ask for forgiveness? ## Frequently Bought Together - Momo - The Neverending Story - The Night of Wishes: or The Satanarchaeolidealcohellish Notion Potion --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://china.desertcart.com/products/5367586-momo](https://china.desertcart.com/products/5367586-momo) --- *Product available on Desertcart China* *Store origin: CN* *Last updated: 2026-10-09*
