The world of the books
Silvana Nucci’s novels take young heroes to the most mysterious places: a pyramid in Egypt, a museum where history wakes up, a hidden door in a school, a city built in rings under the sea.
Each story mixes adventure, riddles and real knowledge. The books are illustrated and end with pages on what’s true (or a bestiary of the creatures) and a quiz.
For girls and boys aged 8 to 12, in Italian and Spanish.
