Emil Tischbein's adventure begins when he is traveling by train from the small town of Neustadt to visit his grandmother in Berlin. His hardworking mother has given him 140 marks in an envelope which is securely fastened with a pin to his inside pocket. Unfortunately for him, he's sharing a railway carriage with a man in a bowler hat who, taking advantage of Emil's sleepiness, has robbed him.

While Emil secretly follows the villain through the bustling streets of Berlin, he realizes that no policeman will believe him. He has no proof! But when a band of children hear his story, they join him and take on the role of detectives to capture the thief.

Generations of children have enjoyed Emil's story and its lessons of teamwork and integrity. The man in the bowler hat has stolen his money, so would it be right for the detectives to steal the money from him?

"No," they decide, "that would be stealing too!"

So they come up with an ingenious plan....
