Press review
Melina and the Stone Secret (2013)
“What it means for a young person to have a depressed mother and at the same time to be an outsider in the class, Marlene Röder knows how to skillfully deal with literary skills. In particular, her approach of telling the topic in a fantastic story makes this novel not a problem book for readers aged 10 and over, but a story that gives a lot of strength. "
