<p>Kẻ Trộm Sách</p>

<p>Nội dung chính của câu chuyện không lột tả những cảnh chiến trường đẫm máu của thế chiến II, những cảnh giết chóc man rợ… mà đây là câu chuyện về Liesel, cô bé gái mồ côi được làm con nuôi tại phố Thiên Đàng thuộc thành phố Munich. Trong câu chuyện về Liesel, điều ấn tượng nhất với thần chết chính là niềm say mê sách của cô bé. Liesel ăn cắp những cuốn sách bất cứ khi nào có thể.</p>
