In the organizer's words:

Welcome to the School of Talents!

Everyone at this boarding school has fantastic abilities. They can transform themselves, understand animals, control water ... that sort of thing! Volume 8 of the SPIEGEL bestseller series: The School of Talents is upside down: all the talents are mixed up! Alva can transform, Mala shrinks and Elwin flies around on a sofa. It's pretty funny to try out a different ability. But, oh shock - a young whale is stranded on the cliffs of the island. How are Alva and her friends supposed to help the animal back into the water when they have barely mastered their new skills? And how can they get their own back? Not a chance! Chaos? The order of the day! Uncovering secrets and having adventures? Absolutely!
