Children's Book of August 2021
Anke Kuhl
Manno
Alles genau so in echt passiert
Most of us know and love Anke Kuhl. We love her wonderfully cheeky, relaxed stroke, the serious googly eyes in children's faces that don't smile all the time. We love her sense of physicality in "Clarify Me", her black humor in "Alle Kinder" and the profound expressions of her animal characters.
Now we get an idea of where this wealth originated. "Manno!" tells in wonderful comic episodes about the childhood of little Anke in a small town in Hesse. We immerse ourselves in a world in which grandma and grandpa still live in the same house and in which you can come up with rather outlandish ideas in the afternoons. A world that, despite all the family intimacy, is not without breaks. An immensely touching book for children and adults with an immense range from hilarious to deeply sad and a lot in between.
