Der traurigste Himmel auf Erden

I would love for this book to inspire you to just get started. It doesn't matter how big or small the task is. You don't have to be a hero, and above all, you don't have to be a role model - but it would be nice if you try to make your world a little bit better in some way. How do you find your place in this loud world? And how can animals help you find meaning and stability? As crazy as this story may sound: a city pigeon turned Malte Zierden's life upside down. And in a much more positive way than any human ever could. Through his friendship with his pigeon Osskar, Malte realizes: animal protection starts right outside your bathroom window - and soon leads him to the most dangerous crisis areas in the world, where he rescues animals and gives them a voice. In animal protection, Malte has finally found his purpose: he honestly showcases his tireless commitment on social media and educates his community. To save animals, he also travels to war zones as a member of the emergency paw team. For his animal protection work, he was awarded the German Animal Protection Prize in 2024. Beautiful and melancholic at the same time, Malte shares his emotional, entertaining, and incredibly important journey of how his encounters with animals have shaped him into the person he is today. His mission: to create a place where animals can live in peace. Everything for the animals, always.
