«Wir alle für immer zusammen» is the children's and young adult novel by Guus Kuijer, published by Oetinger Friedrich GmbH in hardcover (95 pages, in German).
Polleke experiences it intensely: her boyfriend Mimoen leaves her because his parents don't accept the relationship, and her mother is having an affair with the teacher. To cope, she writes poems about what she feels; on her grandparents' farm, next to a calf named after her, she learns to pray without feeling like a believer.
First volume of the Polleke series, translated by Sylke Hachmeister and illustrated by Alice Hoogstad. The book won the Gouden Griffel 2000 and the Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis 2002.
For readers from 10 years old; due to its childlike perspective on adult themes, it also appeals to those who enjoy young adult literature.
Guus Kuijer is a Dutch author. He wrote books for children and adults, and is best known for the Madelief series of children's books.

As a children's writer he was one of five finalists for the biennial, international Hans Christian Andersen Award in 2008.
