En hel, en halv og to af pap. Hvornår er man søskende? Og hvad forbinder børn selv med at være søskende? Forfatterne af bogen har for første gang undersøgt, hvad børnene selv forbinder med at være søskende - både i traditionelle kernefamilier, skilsmissefamilier og andre familietyper. Bogen bygger på en undersøgelse, hvor knap 100 børn og unge fra hele landet er blevet interviewet og observeret i løbet af 2011 og 2012. Der er inddraget familier og søskendegrupper med ret forskellige udformninger og betingelser for på den måde at have de bedste forudsætninger for at undersøge fænomenet søskende i al sin kompleksitet. Til bogen hører en film Bevægelige søskendeskaber – børns og unges fortællinger (28 minutter). Filmen kan ses via akademisk.dk.
