    Super-Duper

    ,
    Not all superheroes are the same—everyone knows that! Take Eagle-Eye, for example, who can always find Dad’s glasses, the car keys, and the cellphone; or Micro-Wave, who heats up lunch and dinner with a single touch; or Factotum, who fixes anything by turning his hands into tools. With Super-Duper, however, it’s a whole different story! Super-Duper is convinced he has extraordinary powers, such as making flowers grow (which actually grow on their own), moving the Sun through yoga (an activity that at least keeps him fit), or stopping the rain (something that sometimes happens after days of intense concentration), and so on. There is, however, one person for whom Super-Duper truly is a superhero: his beloved Granny, whom he visits often and helps in every possible way. For her, he really does find a way to make flowers grow, move the Sun, stop the rain and, above all, he has the power to… make her laugh out loud! A gentle story in which care and empathy for those we love make even the hardest and most unimaginable things possible.

    C’è Una Cosa in Ogni Cosa

    ,
    If you look closely, in all the things we know (and often love), there is always something else. In a shell, there is a hermit crab. In an envelope, there are often other envelopes. In places, there are different people and situations. On a sunny or rainy day, there are different moods... And in us? In us, too, there is something. Because in addition to our organs, there are emotions, sensations, memories...

    Pinocchio

    ,
    This is the story of a puppet who wishes only to become a real boy: a curious creature embarking on an adventurous journey in search of himself. The book is being published to mark the bicentenary of Carlo Collodi’s birth. We wanted to celebrate a classic of children’s literature by publishing Pinocchio in an illustrated version narrated by Sven Völker, who, with care and respect for the original, reworks the story of the world’s most famous puppet, presenting it to us from a new perspective: that of a ‘machine’ that wishes to become ‘human’. A surprisingly topical perspective on our present day, in which digital machines are taking the place of human beings.

    Rocco

    ,
    Rocco is a crocodile that swims like a crocodile, moves like a crocodile, and eats like any other crocodile-or at least tries to. How, on the other hand, would a crocodile like Rocco get out of the way if he fell into a very deep hole? In a dense jungle and its underground, to the rhythm of Andrés López's brushstrokes, unfolds the adventure of the crocodile Rocco, who, with the help of other animals, tries by all means to get out of the trap in which he has gotten himself into. A bittersweet book that with its delicacy in the ending snatches a smile of relief.... But perhaps not for the little possum....

    Restless Modernity | The Il’dar Galeyev Collection of Soviet Children’s Books

    , ,
    Over 100 Soviet children’s books, drawn from the remarkable collection of Russian specialist Il’dar Galeyev, trace the spread of cultural and educational innovations from Russia to the capitals of Western modernism in the early decades of the twentieth century. With contributions by James M. Bradburne, Rene Loewenson, Lisa Hilton, Arthur I. Miller, Clive Britton, John E. Bowlt, Nicoletta Misler, Simon Callow, and Jack Zipes, and enriched by an extensive iconographic apparatus, the volume offers a dual interpretative key: on the one hand, a timely and engaging reflection on the circulation of ideas; on the other, a rich and evocative visual journey through a unique collection of children’s books, bearing witness to a crucial moment in twentieth-century culture. Through the perspectives of international scholars on key figures and fields of modernity—from the arts to science, from psychoanalysis to music—an interdisciplinary inquiry emerges, inviting readers to reconsider how ideas are born, transformed, and disseminated over time. In an era in which ideas and information travel at dizzying speeds, shaping contemporary events, this book shows how modernity became “viral.”
