Chi sono gli alberi? Creature vive che cantano, che emettono suoni nel silenzio o nella notte, che respirano, che si nutrono, che guardano, che sentono.Un libro come una passeggiata per scoprire e osservare gli alberi che ci circondano, i paesaggi che abitano e che abitiamo insieme, le relazioni tra loro e noi; per comprendere la loro bellezza, la vita che li anima e che ci infondono, la poesia che alimentano.

Escrito en 1865, Alicia en el País de las Maravillas es un clásico no sólo de la literatura juvenil, sino de la literatura en general. Popularizado por las decenas de versiones que de él se han llevado a cabo, el relato que el reverendo Charles Dodgson, verdadero nombre de Lewis Carrol, escribiera para la niña Alicia Liddell, de diez años, es un delicioso entramado de situaciones verosímiles y absurdas, metamorfosis insólitas de seres y ambientes, juegos con el lenguaje y con la lógica y asociaciones oníricas que hacen de él un libro inolvidable.

The Wind in the Willows is a children's novel by Kenneth Grahame, first published in 1908. Alternately slow moving and fast paced, it focuses on four anthropomorphised animals in a pastoral version of England. The novel is notable for its mixture of mysticism, adventure, morality, and camaraderie and celebrated for its evocation of the nature of the Thames valley. In 1908 Grahame retired from his position as secretary of the Bank of England. He moved back to Cookham, Berkshire, where he had been brought up and spent his time by the River Thames doing much as the animal characters in his book do-namely, as one of the phrases from the book says, "simply messing about in boats"-and wrote down the bed-time stories he had been telling his son Alistair.

The classic story by L. Frank Baum, retold for children growing in reading confidence and ability. When Dorothy is whizzed to Oz in a tornado, she lands in a place where nothing is quite as it seems. Can she find the Wizard, defeat the Wicked Witch of the West, and be granted her wish to return to Kansas?

New to the Second Edition is "The Wasp in a Wig," a recently discovered episode Carroll deleted from Through the Looking-Glass, but which fits into the story in interesting ways. Each text is accompanied by ample explanatory notes. "Backgrounds" reprints new selections from recent biographies of Carroll and from recent editions of his diaries and letters. Our understanding of and appreciation for Carroll's life and literature are deepened by new contributions from Anne Clark, Tony Beale, E. M. Rowell, and, most revealingly, Carroll himself. "Criticism" retains seven seminal critiques from the First Edition while adding four important recent essays by Nina Auerbach, Roger Henkle, Robert Polhemus, and Donald Rackin. A revised and updated Selected Bibliography is also included.

These enchanting fairytales are delightfully re-told in the first two titles to introduce classic fiction to the popular Usborne Picture Books series. Stunning and evocative original artwork combines with simple and engaging text to bring these tales to life. Young children will be enthralled by these charming books, as they follow Pinoccho's path to becoming a real boy, and Gerda's quest to save her best friend from the evil Snow Queen.

«Geppetto tomó en seguida las herramientas y se puso a esculpir y a fabricar su muñeco. ―¿Qué nombre le pondré? ―se preguntó―. Le voy a llamar Pinocho. Este nombre le traerá suerte.»
