What is a child?
illustrated book
Beatrice Alemagna for Topipittori
Italian text, 2008
The best-selling, award winning author and illustrator Beatrice Alemagna,
poses a difficult question: What is a child? More than enough to remain speechless.
“A child is a person, but small”, with small hands,
small feet, and small ears. But his thoughts and ideas
are not necessarily as small as he is.
Here‘s how Beatrice answers the question, drawing from the strenght of her sophisticated imagination.
From the intertwining of cristalline words and poetic pictures, an amusing, moving and illuminating book is born: a child-sized portrait gallery, that will fascinate grown-ups too. A book to read together, to help children answer the question “Who am I?” and to help parents remind what it means to be a kid.
Also published in French, Greek, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Dutch, (Traditional) Chinese, Korean, Swedish, English, (Simplified) Chinese, Japanese.
