The picture books “Zwei Papas für Tango” by Edith Schreiber-Wicke and Carola Holland, “Minu und der Geheimnismann” by Andrea Karimé and Renate Habinger, and “Das Tomatenfest” by Satomi Ichikawa will be read.
Family adventures can happen anywhere – in Grandma’s garden, at the zoo, in our imagination, or while spying on a mysterious neighbor.
In these books, we meet Tango’s two dads, faraway grandmas, secretive men, and green-thumbed grannies. They all show us how different families can be – and all the wonderful things you can experience together!
Exciting stories for children aged three to six, but older visitors will find them entertaining too.
The curator
Chantal-Fleur Sandjon is an Afro-German author, editor, and spoken word artist. Her work focuses particularly on the nuanced representation of Black lives in Germany, embedding these experiences in the past, present, and future. Her young adult novel The Sun, So Radiant and Black (Thienemann, 2022) won the German Youth Literature Award, among others, in 2023. Her latest novel, City of Trees (Thienemann, May 2024), is a poetic, Afro-diasporic, and Afro-spiritual exploration of transformation—both in the worlds around us and within ourselves. Sandjon advocates for radical diversity in German-language children’s and young adult literature, publishes articles on the subject, and supports institutions in developing anti-discriminatory practices.
