Tutte le cose che so

by Petit Cristina

What do children know? In an enchanting, yet simple narrating voice, a child describes to their teacher all that they know, all the «things that they like and the things that happen». Cristina Petit, who worked as a teacher for many years before becoming an award-winning author, was inspired by Kamisaka Sekka’s stunning art to vividly portray this hymn to life and nature, as seen through the eyes of a child.
