5042696800001Z“Seven different families show us their homes: Juli and Caspar have a baby, Jaroslaw and Claudia already have a crisis in the morning and grandpa Jussim has a big party. Emma and Martin have both a daddy and a papa, and hairdresser Luise makes a great duo with her daughter. Young and old live together in the WG – and in the middle of the Wimmelviertel Alfred camps out in his construction trailer.” (Book description of the publisher)
In the picture book, several constellations of caregivers for children are presented in a tour of a residential neighborhood. Reference is made, for example, to people with disabilities, people of color, gender identities, gender roles, and age.

The illustrations of children in “Indian disguise” and the passive role of a child in a wheelchair are critical(Cf. i-PÄD, Intersectional Children’s Book List).
