Irene Penazzi
ADVENTURES AND DISCOVERIES
A garden, a tree, a winding path, a tent in the woods: from these simple beginnings, wondrous adventures unfold, if you know how to look through a child’s eyes. Every rustle, sigh, and creak brings a surprise—and when shared with friends, it’s all the more delightful. Irene Penazzi’s Su e giù per le montagne (Terre di Mezzo, 2021) and Nel mio giardino il mondo (Terre di Mezzo, 2019) capture this playful spirit, without a single word. So, dear children, come and uncover the evocative sounds of nature hidden within these books!
