«El libro de los porqués - Cielo y tierra» is a children's storybook by Gianni Rodari, published by Picarona in hardback (40 pages, in Spanish).
Why does the sun rise, why does the moon shine, why does it rain or snow? The book gathers common childhood questions and answers them with scientific and imaginative explanations. It is a selection of short stories, illustrated by Raffaella Bolaffio, taken from «Il libro dei perché», with Gianni Rodari's blend of rigour and fantasy.
Translation from Italian by Lorenzo Fasanini. Original title: «Il libro dei perché - Cielo e terra».
Recommended for children aged 5 and up interested in the sky and nature.
Giovanni Francesco "Gianni" Rodari was an Italian writer and journalist, most famous for his works of children's literature, notably Il romanzo di Cipollino. For his lasting contribution as a children's author, he received the biennial Hans Christian Andersen Medal in 1970. He is considered Italy's most important 20th-century children's author, and his books have been translated into many languages, though few have been published in English.
