In this book, psychotherapist Chiara Piroddi provides simple and

explanation of the content for teachers and parents; and ends with
suggestions for additional Montessorian activities to experience
the world beyond its pages.
One of the fundamental pillars of a Montessori approach is
providing children with opportunities for autonomy in their life -
from getting dressed to learning. In this book, psychotherapist
Chiara Piroddi, provides simple and stimulating activities that
children can easily execute on their own. The book begins with a
pedological explanation of the content for teachers and parents;
and ends with suggestions for additional Montessorian activities to
experience the world beyond its pages
How do we move around the world with awareness? Thanks to the 5
senses, which allow us to experience reality! In this book, the
psychotherapist Chiara Piroddi provides games and activities that
allow the child to learn, independently, through guided games and
simple but accurate explanations, the anatomical characteristics of
the five senses. At the end of the book, thanks to simple
instructions, it will be possible to create additional Montessorian
materials to experience the world beyond the book.
The idea behind the board book collection was to attract even the
youngest readers (from as young as 21/2 years old); to encourage
them to discover subjects and areas that interest them (nature,
animals, shapes, etc.) and to help them classify the things that
surround them. The series is comprised of ten little books. Two are
instructive, teaching shapes and numbers; five are exploratory and
describe settings that are fun to discover (farm animals, wild
animals, the backyard and its insects, the vegetable garden) and
three are short stories about the experience of birth in nature
(the birth of a little bird, of a butterfly and of a flower).
Narration becomes the background for the text since touching and
picture readings are the primary means of interpretation. A guiding
character accompanies the child throughout each developing story
until the end, where there is a summary of all the characters
introduced in the book. Consistent with the Montessori approach,
the child is encouraged to interact independently with his or her
book. For example, in some cases, the child is asked to use a
finger to trace the outline of a shape and notice its
characteristics (round, sharp-edged, jagged, etc.). In others, he
or she is asked to use a finger to follow a path in order to
discover hidden characters and learn to associate them with their
most distinctive features (the lion's tail, the rabbit's ears, the
colours of vegetables, etc.).

This book is an introspective voyage through the world of Allegra's
emotions. Allegra is a sensitive, curious child of seven and the
pages mark episodes of her life and narrate her feelings of joy,
sadness, fright, anger, surprise, disgust and shame - all of which
are personified in seven adorable characters. The reader dives into
Allegra's inner world, narrated through paintings and fascinating
illustrations where reality intertwines with fantasy scenarios. At
the end of the voyage, Allegra and her readers will have learned
how feelings arise and how to avoid being frightened by them as
they evolve, change in intensity and break down inside of one's
conscience and how to welcome them into one's own inner world.
Allegra will learn to play on her piano all the emotional shades
that distinguish her and thus be able to completely integrate her
characters into her inner world.

Little Tim is the central character for this innovative series that
speaks both to parents and their little ones. Each of the first
four books in the series deals with a fundamental problem that
might affect three- to five-year olds: fear, especially of the
dark, anger and aggression that are frightening and difficult to
manage, jealousy, perhaps due to the arrival of a new family member
and the shyness that makes it difficult to face new situations such
as the first day of nursery school. The book's point of view makes
it unique. It speaks directly to the reader, describing a problem
and providing five small, simple solutions to help face it. All of
the points are imaginative and written using language suitable to
the targeted age group with examples taken from the child's daily
life that he or she can actually put into practice. At the end of
every book, parents will find reflections and behaviours in a
section dedicated to them because sometimes, parents find these
situations just as hard as their children do and sometimes, even
harder.
Born from the encounter between graphic arts, computer science and
journalism, the language of infographics is considered one of the
most contemporary and rigorous, from a scientific point of view.
Its new and original application to children's publishing makes
this volume, devoted entirely to the planet Earth, truly one of a
kind. The solid scientific data, selected and organized in 16
infographic tables by the author of the texts, who is a children
psychotherapist, are interspersed with amusing curiosities, while
the thorough schemes are lightened by colourful illustrations.
Becoming experts of our planet will be easy and fun!
