Written by Gianni Rodari, the father of modern Italian childrens literature, and charmingly illustrated by awardwinning artist Beatrice Alemagna, this bright, sweet story reminds us what children are really like in the most essential and beautiful way!? A 2024 USBBY Outstanding International Book ? Little Giovanni is always daydreaming, always paying attention to the small miracles that lead him to lose track of the big picture. So even though hes promised his mama to keep his eyes open on his walk, he cant help but get distracted. Cheerful, carefree, and curious, Giovanni literally loses himself as he discovers the wide, wonderful world around him. Here, Rodari highlights the gorgeous way children give themselves over to their attention to the world by having Giovanni lose parts of himself as he walks along. Should his mama worry? No! Because: Thats just the way children are.Following her New York Times/New York Public Library Best Illustrated Telling Stories Wrong, Beatrice Alemagna returns to illustrate another of Gianni Rodaris delightful stories from Telephone Tales. With a Batchelder Award winning translation by Antony Shugaar, this classic story from one of Italys most beloved and important authors of childrens literature asserts the power of flights of fancy and the value of childlike wonder.
