his mother's current partner who lives with them. The little boy will grow up

still say that a family is limited to a dad, a mom? With 3 DADS, Nando
Von Arb proves that there are different forms of family. In this book
autobiographical, he recounts his childhood spent with a sad mother and
three men. Three male models who have each counted in their own way in
the development of the young boy. The story is told through the eyes of the
little Nando whose representation seems to come straight out of a child's drawing
(a potato man with two dots for eyes and two lines for the
arms). With this drawing of primitive force and this very allegorical universe
Personally, Nando Von Arb opens wide the arms of his childhood to us and
hits right in the heart!
