Escape to the world of make believe where imagination takes flight.
This charming excursion to the world of imaginative play features poetic text accompanied by exquisite illustrations by a recent Italian Children's Laureate.
Our hideaway is a house made of slender branches and singing leaves. No one can enter, except my little brother and I. Even though there's not much room, for us it has no limits. We can travel to the savanna or to snow-capped lands, enjoy a five o'clock tea or sleep beneath the stars. Until we hear a far-off voice growing nearer as it calls to us... has someone found us in our hideaway?
This timeless ode to creative play provides a welcome reminder to unplug from the distractions of the modern world, be present in the moment, and ready to travel wherever our imaginations might take us.

Melania Longo is an art historian with a specialisation in Museum Education Services, with a focus on Children's Literature. She uses art as a tool in training courses, for children and adults, cultivating it as a deposit of knowledge, narratives and experiences, to learn to see and know. She develops study activities around illustrated books, with particular reference to the reading of images and their role in the formation of the imagination of each of us. Hideaway is her first book to be translated into English.
