Jan von Holleben Libri

Insightful and considerate answers to 70 questions boys and girls have about puberty and young love. Even before they experience puberty and young love themselves, girls and boys have many questions about sex and sexuality. Parents often don't know the best way to answer them and it's practically impossible to find the right time to start a conversation about the birds and the bees. Especially today, when most young people have access to the internet and its explicit or dubious content, it is extremely important to address the topic of sex education with children proactively and give it the attention it needs and deserves. As daunting as it might be for parents to take the lead, leaving the internet or a classmate to "explain" sexuality is not an option. Thankfully, the book Does This Happen to Everyone? offers a welcome alternative with a contemporary look and feel that is both fitting for kids and appealing to adults. Does This Happen to Everyone? is an empathetic and entertaining publication that radiates joy, imaginativeness, and fun. In it, Photo artist Jan von Holleben and writer Antje Helms provide answers to the most important questions about puberty in words and images that are relaxed and uninhibited, yet suitable for children. The book takes questions, worries, and fears seriously and responds to them in a direct, yet sensitive way that anyone can understand.

The Dr. Seuss of photography, Jan von Holleben, shows children how to bend reality with no more than a smartphone and a playful outlook.

We use our brains every day, but how do they actually control our thoughts, our movements, and our feelings? Does the brain turn itself off at night? Can people who research the brain read minds? In That’s What You Think!, experts respond to 80 questions posed by children about the brain. Their answers explore how our brains develop, what they are made of, and how they work. They reveal astounding information and facts not only about the human brain, but also about the gray matter of earthworms, ants, and sperm whales. The images created by Jan von Holleben capture our personal control rooms in action—as we taste, get scared, study, juggle, and sleepwalk. These fun, enlightening photographs clearly demonstrate that even when we do nothing at all, our brains are hard at work.

A child always has room for dessert. But have you ever seen actual rooms for dessert? Embark on this delicious adventure, full of giant gummy bears, mountains of jelly and cream, a popcorn ocean and more, from children's book team Jan von Holleben and Monte Packham. Rooms for Dessert follows five children on the hunt for sweets in a grand palace, who end up discovering all kinds of secrets and surprises. In fantastical collages von Holleben has inventively combined the photos he made in Germany's baroque Heidecksburg Palace with an array of real confectionery. Packham tells the story in playful, humorous verse that captures the children's curiosity and mirrors the opulence of the palace. Closely interacting, image and text create a fairy tale for today. The book's message? With a little imagination anyone can transform reality into a land of fantasy-the sweetest things in life aren't just those we see with our eyes.

WUT. Sie bringt Kinder zum Beben. Eltern auch. Sie ist feuerheiß, kraftvoll, zupackend. Sie ist Explosion und Implosion. Verzieht sie sich, lässt sie Kinder und Eltern erschöpft zurück und oft bleiben Fragezeichen: Was war das?! Woher kommt die Wut? Genau dieser Frage geht der Fotograf Jan von Holleben nach und fängt mit seiner Kamera 15 typische Situationen ein, die Kinder wütend machen. Assoziative Texte von Jörg Isermeyer begleiten die Szenen. So entsteht ein lebendiges Fotobilderbuch, in dem Kinder und ihre Eltern sich wiedererkennen, ins gemeinsame Erzählen und Reflektieren kommen.

Im Schloss Leckereck entdecken fünf Kinder auf der Suche nach Süßigkeiten zahlreiche Geheimnisse und Überraschungen. Jan von Holleben kombiniert fantasievolle Collagen aus echten Süßigkeiten mit seinen Fotografien, während Monte Packham humorvolle Verse erzählt. Ein Märchen, das die Vorstellungskraft feiert.
