Can you help me find this book?

Asked by Pcrecords (1436points) March 11th, 2009 from iPhone

I read a childrens book a couple of years ago. It was a german story (translated to English) it was about a man who lived above a shop and sent out Chinese lanterns with stories attached to them. I lent it to someone and now really can’t remember it’s name.

No barnes and noble here in the uk. I’ve asked in a few places and now I’ve come to the masters.

Ooh ooh ooh! I remember that book – I loved that story so much! I’m wracking my brains to remember what it was called… Was it Tubby and the Lantern? I think that was it…

Sorry. That’s not it. The man owns the shop and rents it to a sweet man who sends up food and wine. The stories are sent off around the world on paper lanterns. They are unfinished so people finish them and return them to the man. I’m starting to think his name is in the title.
