Pit

Scritto e illustrato da: Daniela Berti

Bilingual children’s book English-Italian

One day the little chick Pit became huge, even bigger than the sun. Scientists start studying him and archaeologists even measure his footprints. Everything was tight on him, even his own home. A surreal and entertaining tale which reminds us that often not everything is as it seems. We need to look at things with new eyes and from different perspectives… and then maybe we might even discover some nice surprises!
