Der in New York lebende Schweizer Journalist Konrad Walliser erhält 1973 von einem Jugendfreund und Dienstkollegen den Auftrag, in die USA nach Süddakota zu reisen, um dort den ehemaligen Grenzsoldaten Balz Hardegger über den Fall der jungen Roma Sesil zu befragen. Das 14-jährige Flüchtlingskind war 1943 über die Grenze geschmuggelt worden und sollte in Sicherheit gebracht werden. Der Rettungsversuch missriet jedoch aus ungeklärten Gründen. Walliser forscht nun bei ehemaligen Grenzsoldaten weiter und gerät immer tiefer in eine obskure Geschichte. Der Roman wirft kritische Fragen auf. Historisch sensibel, aber auch mit Humor und Ironie führt der Erzähler durch einen Abschnitt der jüngeren Schweizer Geschichte, deren Themen auch heute an Aktualität nichts eingebüsst haben.

A Sweet, Classic Read – Perfect for Bedtime!
Format: Hardcover
I got Daddies for my son’s birthday, and it’s quickly become a favorite in our home! We read it multiple times a day – I’ve practically got it memorized! The simple, classic illustrations are wonderful for little ones’ growing minds, and they bring such a calm, cozy vibe, making this book especially great for winding down before bed. Little Golden Books are a staple in our family, and Daddies fits right in. Highly recommend for any parent looking to add a timeless, heartfelt story to their child’s collection!

Great illustrations. Great story.
Format: Hardcover
My son and daughter (who are 2 and 4 years old) love this book. They seem to gravitate to all the Little Golden Books we have. It's one that I don't mind reading over and over again. The pictures have an old fashioned look to them, but I like them, especially the one at the end showing them all eating dinner together. As others have noted, there aren't really any women in the book, but it is about Daddies, and applies well to our family situation. The main point is that daddy loves them even though he is away at work all day, so it might not be the best choice for stay-at-home Dads. Made a great Father's Day present for us.

This book brings back so many sweet memories!
Format: Hardcover
When my son was a toddler, I read to him every night. This book was one of the stories in a large book of children's stories. My son loved Daddies so much, he wanted me to read it over and over and over again until he had it memorized and he would "read" it himself. Now my son will be 46 in March and I bought it as a surprise for his birthday. I think he will enjoy it and it will make him laugh. It is a great book. Now one of my daughters wants me to buy a copy for one of my great-grandsons!!!
