Today, September 1, we have come across a new image in the Google search engine, and it is that this page has dedicated its doodle to the book written by Michael Ende, "The endless story".
This fantasy genre novel, years later it would become a movie, which brought millions of children closer to the work who were dazzled after seeing it but did not make the author of the book very funny, who called it a "Gigantic commercial melodrama based on kitsch, stuffed animal and plastic". Such was his anger and disappointment that he later requested to be removed from the film's credits.
We could say that "The endless story" it's from those books must-read and despite the years that have passed since its publication (1979) it can be said that it is more current than we would like, since its protagonist suffers from 'bullying' at school… A very hot topic that has always existed, although it was not talked about many times before.
