Mama Superstar
€25.00
Eleven courageous portraits about unconditional love and cultural diversity. Mama Superstar takes us to, among other places, war-torn South Korea, hot India, lively Mexico and hopeful Iraq. Above all, the book takes us to the places where the migrant mothers' daughters grew up: quiet Kelkheim, tidy Stuttgart and multicultural Berlin. Inspiring, funny and extremely honest.
We recommend this book for teenagers and adults.
The authors: Melisa Manrique and Manik Chander have something in common: both have mothers who left their homeland to find a new home in another country. Through their work, the young activists celebrate the migration stories of their own mothers and have created a unique monument to mothers and migrants. Her project Migrant Mama (@mymigrantmama), which was discussed in detail in the media, was awarded the German Integration Prize, among other things.

As a publisher, we're all about community and great books - for children and adults. Topics relating to children's education, sustainability, healthy living, but also social coexistence as a whole are important to us.
