"Sockenschlacht und Löwenzahn" tells stories from the everyday lives of children: in the countryside and in the city, from the 1930s to the 1960s, in Switzerland. In six different children's worlds of today's grandparents and great-grandparents, we read about their games, curses, songs, illnesses, favorite foods, their worries, their work, and their families. "Sockenschlacht und Löwenzahn" is a book for children and adults for reading aloud and for independent reading. Play instructions and recipes from the six children invite readers to reenact, cook, curse, and inquire. The book serves as an inspiration for children to immerse themselves in a foreign childhood and a different time, while for adults, it prompts reflection on their own childhood and encourages remembering and storytelling. It makes the Switzerland of the past accessible to children and connects the biographies of generations.
