A story about the dreams and adventures of childhood, as well as the parental love that watches over and nurtures you to become yourself.

One of the most beautiful children's libraries of 2021 according to Marginalian (formerly Brain Pickings). Using notebooks, boards, and sketches, author John Miller (Winston and George) weaves a lyrical tale about the childhood of Italian artist Giuliano Cucco.

Through bright and emotionally rich images, Miller narrates the story of a colorful family and an imaginary boy, from a time when children had the freedom to wander and dream. This innovative illustrated book, born from images to words, is a hymn to childhood and a celebration of the human soul.

It is also a celebration of the deep inner solitude we hold as children, where we blossom. Here, our child protagonist matures on his own and only needs three words from his father to help affirm who he believes he is.
