Jole

This is the story of a granddaughter and a grandmother tied by a very special bond. A garden, a hospital, a lost set of keys, a pair of rain boots, a magic dog, a talking mole... In this contemporary fairy tale, the way back home from school becomes an adventurous journey in which reality and imagination converge, and readers will be taken in an underground world full of mysteries and emotions.

E questo cos'è?

If "Che cos’è?", the first book by Paolo Ventura, invited toddlers to play with circular shapes, "E questo cos'è?" is all about squares. An aquarium, a box, a blackboard, a dice... how many things can a square be? A swinging sequence of questions and answers, to change point of view, to observe and to ideally continue and enjoy the game.

OH!

Friendship, love, fear, trust, mistrust, awe, doubt, rivalry... what and how many emotions is a relationship made of? Massimo Caccia presents an amazing gallery of animals, which show readers the joys and sorrows we can feel in relation to other people, who may be different or similar to us, distant and impenetrable, or close and lovable. The exclamations giving voice to these characters are by Giovanna Zoboli.

A volte sparisco

Dinosauri

Sai cosa sono i fossili? Come si chiama il dinosauro grande come un pollo? Quanto pesava uno Spinosauro? Quanto era lungo il Diplodoco? Quanto misura un dente di T-Rex? Sapevi che le code di alcuni dinosauri erano delle vere e proprie armi? Di che colore erano i dinosauri? Queste e altre domande su un argomento che non smette di affascinare e sorprendere i bambini. Le splendide illustrazioni di Bastien Contraire, autore per la prima volta in catalogo, e la rilegatura che facilita l’apertura e la lettura rendono questo libro un prezioso strumento per conoscere.

Code, pinne e branchie

This is a book for those children who, at the sight of an animal, don't say "how disgusting!", but are fascinated by its anatomy and ask many questions. Why do fish have bones? How do they classify? How do they communicate? How do they breathe? How do they move? How do they look? Barbara Cuoghi, biologist and science teacher, Emiliano Vizzi, an illustrator with a passion for fish and crustaceans, and Lorenza Natarella, cartoonist and colourist, are authors of this new book of PiNO collection.

Case

In how many ways can you inhabit a house? At least in thirty-nine different ways, as these short stories show. Their author is María José Ferrada, acclaimed poet and story teller. The illustrations are by Pep Carriò, a Spanish illustrator who spends his time drawing trees, islands and, of course, houses. A book to sneak into other people's places, to think about concepts such as inside-outside, useful-useless, or like "behaviour", "habit", "inhabit" and so on. [Text in Italian]
