Sinossi

Good fairy tales captivate us all, both young and old. Brunetta Amidei's tale is truly a magical story. The author, with her extraordinary descriptive language, immerses us in the enchanted world of a far-away and timeless place, where Little Swallow files in from the Auburn Wood, arriving like a gust of hope. Amidei helps us to enter into perfect harmony with nature, as we listen to the conversations between the plants and many peculiar animals of the desert, who try to bring life, colour and voice to Narbe, a dull and desolate land, imprisoned in the tyrannical web of the Golden Spider. The reader's imagination will be heightened by Maurizio Righi's enchanting illustrations that accompany the story. The book is an ideal text for primary school students.
