I read this book in German. If my researches are correct the original title is “If I Grow Up”. Earlier this day, before doing my final researches, I was about to give this book a higher rating, because it was a book that I had to read but liked although it has a serious theme. Sadly I had to correct myself because I found out that the translator messed with the names of the characters. Why I can't say, but it feels unnecessary and makes me angry, because it makes it more difficult to talk about it with other people who read the original, which I now want to start reading and compare soon. If someone can tell me why the translatore chose to change the names, please tell me.
