BORN FROM THE HEART by Berta Serrano Illustrations: Alfonso Serrano age: 4+ Sterling New York, 2014 40 pages Sold to Spain! Every child is born from the heart—whether or not the mother gave birth to that baby. This poetic and magical parable celebrates the richness of family as Rose and Charlie embark on the search for the child they so desperately want. As Rose's dream gets closer to coming true, her heart grows and grows… until it bursts with happiness, laughter, and wonder when she finally kisses the beautiful face of her new baby. First time author Berta Serrano and her brother Alfonso Serrano are the author-illustrator team behind this warm and quirky love letter for Berta's adopted son.

A LITTLE DARKNESS age: 4+ by Cristina Petit Il Castoro Milano, 2014 32 pages An essential, tiny but powerful story to make children acquainted with the darkness. With simple and neat illustrations Cristina Petit - in Italy a very famous blogger and teacher - copes with the children’s biggest fear. Are those big scary red lights the eyes of a wolf that maybe wants to eat me? Are those flickering yellow lights the teeth of a tiger? It’s just a little darkness for me / And I am brave, I can see what it is! That’s what Talla tells to herself, in her little journey across her home at night. And she’s right, because there are no scary creatures in the various rooms - just the lights of some very common domestic appliances: the TV screen, the stereo, the washing machine... and in the end, there is even mummy’s reading light!
