In this fast-paced children՚s novel, fifth grader Pembo takes center stage. Against her will she has to move with her parents from the beautiful Turkish Mediterranean coast to rather rainy Hamburg. There, her father inherited a hairdressing salon. A big dream, but it bursts when it turns out to be a dog grooming salon. With a curious idea, “Baba” Mustafa wants to completely renew the concept of the store and thus brings the family to the edge of madness. But with the help of Pembo and her new friends, the family՚s livelihood is still secured. Ayşe Bosse pulls out all the stops. In addition to bizarre figures, surprising twists and fantastic elements, cultural clichés are ironically played with. The artistic, partly monochrome ink drawings by Ceylan Beyoğlu give the chaos of emotions aptly visual expression. This title is nominated for the 2021 German Children՚s Literature Award.
