Sina's dad has to go to prison. He has done something terrible and now he must face the consequences. Sina doesn't understand any of it. She has no idea about the place where her dad is living now. This book is for children like her, but also for everyone else. Because prison is a place that everyone knows exists, yet very few truly understand. It's a terrible and interesting place. From the very first day, we accompany Sina's dad. We learn all about daily life behind bars: what there is to eat, who lives and works there, what a cell looks like, what the inmates do all day, and what it feels like to be released. Susann Hesselbarth's lively illustrations provide an impression beyond the usual clichés.
