Comment:
The famous Italian illustrator Altan (Pimpa) uses the simplicity of his happy world to describe how each of the families represented in the book can be a wonderful place to grow up in. An entertaining and educational book about families with an ending that frees the imagination of the reader. The publishing house Lo Stampatello was established with the specific aim to fill a gap in the Italian publishing market for children – the absence of representations of queer families.
