We would all like to be a little more beautiful! Blonder, more muscular, a bit slimmer around the hips. There's no reason to be ashamed; with these vain dreams, we are not alone! Nadia Budde brings the whole quirky family from Uncle Waldemar to Grandpa Archibald, plenty of good friends, and illustrious neighbors to the pages of this picture book, and we quickly see where the problem lies: Our neighbor Thilo Schramm has too many kilograms. Little brother Olli dreams of a proper bicep, Waldemar of smooth hair, the little boys in the neighboring house would like to be like Superman, and if we're honest, they are as far from that as their stocky sisters in pink are from true fairies. And because they are all so charming (and so funny!) standing there, grappling with what is lacking or too much, one of them ultimately speaks to our soul, because all the fuss about beauty is just that.
