Katarina (katarinaw) | 5 comments I found this book under the author Tove Jansson:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62...

It doesn't seem to have anything to do with that author and I'm not even sure it has an author (it's in German, and my understanding of German isn't that great) and it seems to have something to do with some kind of game?

I don't want to delete it, it might be a real book, but I'd like for it not to show up when searching for Tove Jansson's books. What do I do?

Thank you!

it is a book, one of those hard books for children, 32 pages, in german. (source: amazon.de) I have added that information, but refrained from adding dimensions and weight, because those were given in cm/grms

Jennifer (jenninrome) | 51 comments This book has a typo in the author field:
9788888845753

It should read "Loira Egan", not "Moia Egan". Thank s for correcting.

Jennifer (jenninrome) | 51 comments Oops. Then I went and made another typo! Thanks so much for fixing it.

Lobstergirl This book is by a different Thomas Mann than the one who wrote "The Magic Mountain", but Goodreads thinks it's the same person. I don't know how to correct.

Edit in an extra space in the author's name. He even already has a profile.

All done.
