What does Bruno want? We follow the black poodle dog Bruno in a sunny and windy day in Rome, since he wakes up until he goes to bed. He’s looking for something, but what? He just wants what everybody wants: “a bit of peace, a little kiss, a slice of sky above, and… love”.

Tender and funny at the same time, enriched with eye-catching art work, this picture book is a playful gift from the most important Chicana writer to the youngest readers.

By the internationally acclaimed writer Sandra Cisneros, author of bestsellers asThe house on Mango Street and Caramelo, a new, poetic and witty picture book,

with the beautiful illustrations of Leslie Greene.

Laura Russo È nata e vive a Roma, ha un marito e due figli e anche un cane di nome Mimma… non ha gatti ma solo perché la fanno starnutire. Insegna in una scuola superiore e da anni scrive e traduce libri per ragazzi per diverse case editrici. Ha ideato e cura una collana per chi ha difficoltà di lettura. Non le piacciono i luoghi troppo ordinati e chi pensa di avere sempre ragione.

Elisa MantoniHa girato vorticosamente da Senigallia (dove è nata) a Roma (dove ha studiato), da Parigi (dove ha vissuto) a Macerata (dove si è innamorata) per realizzare il suo sogno: vivere disegnando. Ora si è fermata a Trani (dove si è sposata), ma i suoi libri, pubblicati a Madrid, Atene e Seoul, continuano a girare per il mondo. Dal 2006 gestisce la Libreria dei Giovani Lettori Miranfù. Si occupa di grafica, illustrazioni e cartoni animati, ama sperimentare e meravigliare i bambini con le sue magie fatte di carta e colori.
