“I love my teacher very much. She is beautiful and kind. Most of the time, she sits next to me as if she were my classmate. She holds my hand to help me write the letters and numbers correctly, making sure they sit well on the lines, so they don’t fall into the abyss. That’s what she tells me when I push them below the line. And I burst out laughing...”

Piigi Grylli, with a simple yet deeply emotional writing style, transports us to a unique school and presents to us not only what is missing but also what is abundant.
