Alle Kinder dieser Erde: Voller Herzenswärme werden in diesem Bilderbuch Babys aus allen Erdteilen vorgestellt. Hier wird ein blondes Baby geboren; da kommt ein schwarzhaaariges zur Welt, ein dunkelhäutiges in Afrika, auf einem Bauernhof eines, das noch keine Haare hat, bei Eiseskälte ein kleiner Inuit und in einem heissen Land eines, das in einem Zelt aufwachsen wird. Und auch im fernen China erblickt ein Kind das Licht der Welt, das durch seine Augenstellung bermerkenswert ist. So sind alle Kinder dieser Welt unterschiedlich, und ein jedes ist unverwechselbar ein eigenständiges, wunderbares Wesen. Etwas jedoch haben alle gemeinsam: Sie haben alle zehn kleine Finger und zehn kleine Zehen; egal, welcher Hautfarbe sie sind. Überall auf unserer Erde ist die Geburt eines Kindes ein mit spannender Vorfreude erwartetes Ereignis. So strahlen die Bilder in diesem Buch denn auch viel Lebensfreude und Glück aus. Die Ilustratorin versteht es ausgezeichnet, Kinder von ihrer Herkunft her typisch und auf allerliebste Art drollig darzustellen. Ein Werk ohne viel Text, das sich ideal als Geschenk für junge Eltern eignet. Ab 2 Jahren, ****, Silvia Zanetti.
