A dolphin is peacefully swimming in the sea, when he sees a charming creature passing by: it’s Nina, the queen of dolphins. He follows her, and ends up wandering through Venice’s canals. Every detail in the city of water attracts his attention, the reflections of majestic palaces, the bridges, a wonderful melody coming from a great yellow building, until he realises he’s gotten lost. Soon the night comes and he falls asleep, then, all of a sudden...

What are mountains? How are they born? Why do they have different shapes and colours? What are tectonic plates? And which is the highest mountain in the world? How are they measured? Children and grown-ups will find answers to these and other questions in an atlas-book full of content and curiosities about the Earth's environment and natural phenomena. As in the previous Geo-Graphic Atlas, Regina Giménez leads us to discover and understand the world we inhabit through her stunning illustrations and vivid infographics made of lines, shapes and colours.

The water is cold and blue, it slides and splashes; it's warm and foamy; it's a mirror that reflects the colour of the sky and the trees. Starting from familiar images, Cécile Roumiguière and Marion Duval take little readers into an exploration of the world through the four elements.

Beneath me, all around me, is the earth. First, the earth is dark and ready for sowing. Then it becomes white with snow revealing the tracks of animals. Finally it turns into a green meadow full of flowers and bees. Starting from familiar images, Cécile Roumiguière and Marion Duval take little readers into an exploration of the world through the four elements.

Those who know everything about Rotraut Susanne Berner's Wimmelbooks will recognise all the characters in this new book of her series, and make new friends as well. Those who haven't met this extraordinary author yet are welcome into this big house in Wimmlingen: they will dwell on every tiny detail probably thinking they will never want to leave. In either case, one thing is sure: sneaking into one of Rotraut Susanne Berner homes means having plenty of stories to tell.

This is a little book to celebrate the birth of a baby. At each spread paper tabs open and close making seven animals pop up. The white pages become a turtle, a mouse, a rabbit, a duck, an elephant, a frog, a bird, and are accompanied by the sweet verses of a nursery rhyme that invites listeners to interact with them. Reading thus becomes a sensory experience to honour the wonder of coming into the world.

It's shopping day for Pasqualina and her mother. As they get in the supermarket, Pasqualina wants to sit in the cart like all other children. She wants everything from the shelves, and at each unfulfilled wish she becomes softer and softer until she turns into a slimy, shapeless mass. And then a bird mistakes her for a snail, and carries her away. Will she find the way back home, this time?

Wicker baskets, carpets, embroidery, friezes: decorating a tool can require as much ability as making a painting one can find in a museum. These artifacts are often created by entire communities or anonymous craftsmen who hand their know-how down from generation to generation. Francesca Zoboli, an illustrator and decorator, will help readers to create interesting patterns and experience the beauty of shapes through the work of great artists like Sonia Delaunay.

Since the ancient times we've heard of peculiar messengers who travel fast and far: Hermes for the Greeks; Mercury for the Romans; the incredibly fast Pheidippides who arrived from Marathon to Athens in one day; the angels; the homing pigeons trained for bringing urgent and secret messages, and many more. This book, produced in collaboration with Museo dei Tasso e della Storia postale (in Northern Italy), retraces the history of communication.
