Since the release of his first record in 1981, Gerhard Schöne has been one of the most well-known singer-songwriters in Germany. Particularly with his songs for children, he has made a lasting impression on several generations. Three decades after his songs from the children's land, he has now written down the stories from his own childhood - full of poetry and wit, without false sentimentality, always with a touch of self-irony. Alongside them are the brilliant illustrations by Jutta Mirtschin, who has dressed the book in a magical attire. A great reading pleasure for adults who have not forgotten the child within!.
