Incredibili leoni ruggenti
From experiences conducted in schools and nurseries, this book encourages creativity through play, movement, and hands-on activities. What can a lion’s roar be? It can be a pencil drawing, watercolor, tempera painting, collage using recycled materials, or even a sculpture made of clay. A lion’s roar can also become a story told through photos, or expressed through jumping, running, touching, and… pawing! Incredible Roaring Lions offers games and activities for parents, educators, and teachers who want to turn children’s curiosity into a creative adventure.
Alfabeti is a journey into the world of letters that invites children to question the meaning and function of the alphabet, transforming the learning of writing into an experience of active inquiry.

The suggested activities encourage experimentation with different forms of handwriting—cursive and print, uppercase and lowercase—and guide learners from the letter to the word within a workshop-based and metacognitive framework. Designed for preschool and primary school teachers, the text supports a language pedagogy that values curiosity, graphic awareness, and the progressive construction of meaning, promoting a reflective and creative approach to learning to write.
