Fiabe lunghe un sorriso
Extraordinary characters who have \’a nose for every day and one for the party\’, houses that fly and walk their owner among the hills, a lively imaginary geography that sends islands on vacation and makes mountains walk, \’open\’ stories that every reader will be able to continue and conclude: Rodari\’s very first experiences speak to us of a mature writer, capable of moving between the themes that will characterize his subsequent production and that will determine its lasting success. Over fifty fairy tales, some short, others a little longer, all marked by the same imagination and creative ability that have made Rodari one of the most loved authors by children.
