A Well-hidden Greyhound
Books for 5-8y, Books for 8-12y Not everyone knows that greyhounds are extremely cautious and careful animals. In fact, they hide because they are afraid of everything: pigeons, balloons, wind, cats, other greyhounds... and when they are hiding it is not easy to find them and convince them to come out! So how can you stop your greyhound from suddenly running off in search of the nearest hiding place? This book offers several strategies: you can try to disguise your greyhound with scary disguises, so that the others will run away from it, or you can take your greyhound to places where you do not risk meeting anyone. What would you do?
With his usual irony and lightheartedness, Andrea Antinori delivers a book that will make you smile at every page, and make you fall in love with this elegant and hopelessly fearful animal.

When the Shadows Lengthen
Books for 12-18y, Books for 5-8y, Books for 8-12y “Do you hear the silence? Silence makes noise… and among the advancing shadows, silence is in the longest wait.” An incredibly delicate colour palette brings us back to the warmth and atmosphere of sunset on a hot summer’s day. Written and illustrated by Giulia Vetri, When the Shadows Lengthen is a book that reminds us of the importance of contemplating silence and the art of waiting.
Starting with a poem written by the author on a long summer day spent at her grandmother’s house in the Italian countryside, this book details the many moments that mark the arrival of evening inside and outside the walls of a house surrounded by hills, trees, and rivers. Something happens on every page, and yet every action, every gesture, speaks above all of the silence that surrounds everything, in the tranquillity of sunset and as the shadows lengthen.
