- Between fears, laughs and nostalgia for distant countries, here you can feel the unexpected human dimension and the warm sharing that often make buildings and cities forget.
- It is an illustrated book in which drawings integrate the story, adding details and unspecified objects. In addition, a sort of “map” of the building (which helpes the protagonists to delete the various tenants not responsible for the theft of the scooter) allows the reader to identify with our heroines.

Profile of the author and illustrator
Francesco Pastorelli studied philosophy in Pisa and then moved to Turin, where he taught and currently works in a publishing house. He writes from as long as he remember, and after publishing a few books for adults, he decided that children’s stories are too good to write one. And so it was.
Maurizio Dondi trained at the Brera Academy of Belle Arti in Milan. Turinese by adoption, he collaborates with various publishing brands as an illustrator, an activity that alternates with that of an iconographer. Occasionally, he develops other artistic projects for passion: at the moment the focus is for postcards and film posters reinterpreted, some of these exhibited at the exhibition “TOgether” curated by George Spencer and Fabia Falcone (the site www.mauriziodondi.it will satisfy any curiosity).
