Inspired freely by Saint-Exupéry, this story relates a meeting between man and animal. Antoine the aviator bursts into the wild world of the fox during an accident in the forest. Thanks to the man's patience and his respect for the animal, a bond is established. And even if, without meaning to, Antoine takes the fox in his flying machine to discover the world of men, there will be no problem. Why? Because there is trust. Because there is trust. In spite of the violent climate that hangs over life on the airfield (Antoine is a war pilot), the animal does not give up his dreams, and when his friend does not return from his last flight, he does not lose hope of finding him. Anna Forlati's illustrations bring to Luca Tortolini's text the harmony of line and colour to depict a world where all that is missing is the strength of the heart, that is to say courage and confidence, to make it a true paradise.

In the year 1943, the world was at war. Every day bombs were falling on the city of Tokyo, Japan.

Despite their sadness, the guards obeyed. The lions, tigers, leopards, bears and large snakes were the first to perish. Yukio Tsuchiya's book tells the sad and true story of what happened when it was the elephants' turn to die.

Once upon a time, there were four friends who never left each other, they had too much fun together. For several weeks, however, the gang was terribly bored because it was raining incessantly. Fortunately, they had the fabulous idea of going on a picnic sheltered from the water. They decided to repair a large boat to cross the river and go to the Blue Mountain. Accompanied by several friends, including a weasel, a fox and a wolf, they set off for this new land where they would all be so wonderfully, wonderfully, wonderfully happy! This musical tale will make children laugh like never before. The story is carried by a few well-known traditional songs and a dozen compositions that are as tender as they are funny. Very fine illustrations accompany this joyful and unbridled journey.

Since then, her bad temper had not been denied. There was no more obnoxious or pretentious little chick for miles around! "Upon learning that a wolf (elderly and retired, but a wolf nonetheless) is moving into the village, the meanest chick on the continent pulls out her superheroine costume and decides that the village isn't big enough for her and the wolf. Happy to finally be able to take on a big enemy, she will give the poor wolf a run for his money, as he was certainly not prepared for this confrontation. This album was the winner of the Lancemot Favorite Book Award 2016.

Summer, rich in moments of relaxation, is presented here with simplicity and gentleness. The pretext: a little girl, on vacation at her uncle's, wanders around the house and meets various protagonists who, one after the other, borrow a few minutes from their routine to relax and observe what the summer sky has to offer. The minimalist poetry of the text is such that it suggests a different view of the characters' actions; standing guard can be done in many ways, while preparing a meal and reading the newspaper have a whole new definition here.This album is an ode to summer, of course, but above all it is an invitation to relax, to take time to live and to take it slowly. An invitation to open our eyes, no matter where we are, to observe what is around us.This album was shortlisted for the Tatoulu 2021 Prize, Pink Tatoulu category and for The White Ravens Prize of the International Youth Library Munich 2017, and won the Golden Island Prize 2019, the Chen Bochui International Children's Literature Awards, Illustrated Book category 2017 and the Ibby Poland Prize 2017.
