Topic
- It is from the internal experience of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of the S. Anna hospital in Turin that this book is born, which follows on Fagiolino e la giraffa, aimed at very young readers.
- The writer is well aware that there are children who are born suddenly. too early, too small, they are very small. And there are some sisters and brothers who are waiting for them and asking themselves many questions: How many days does it take before they come home? Where did my parents (as I used to know them) go? How big is needed to become to leave the hospital? But also: how many emotions can you feel in the meantime?
Reader profile
