In the past, 11-year-old Kruimeltje used to wander around the city with other street kids. But since his parents returned from America as successful gold diggers, he has been living with them in a country villa, where he has to be on his best behaviour at all times. When he gets grounded one day, Kruimeltje has had enough and decides to run away. But as soon as he and his faithful dog Moor have set off, they get caught by a band of robbers who are after his father’s gold. Fortunately, Kruimeltje has learned all sorts of tricks while on the streets and knows how to defend himself. With its action-packed western parodies, LITTLE CRUMB is a new adaptation of the Dutch children’s book classic that is thrilling for both young and old alike. Recommended for age 6 or older
