Synopsis
Elvira Fragola has let herself be inspired by the almanacs of the past and in the book, she includes inspiration and suggestions on what to do in nature and what to be especially aware of during a particular month: which flowers can you pick at the moment, what berries are ripe, which animals are active now and which birds you can see and hear?
The book is published in a stunning big format (220 x 310) – the perfect gift idea for families.
Personal note from the author
"Mom, when is my birthday?" my daughter asked me when she was almost three years old.
"In September," I replied.
"When is it September?" she asked.
I thought about it a bit.
“When the sky is high and blue, and the apples shine most beautifully, mature and red, ”I replied, and my daughter nodded understandingly, while a small smile spread across her face.
THE YEAR is a gift for her and everyone else who understands or wants to see the wheel of the year through small, curious eyes.
It is a celebration of the love of that which surrounds us, and the confidence that the world is mostly good.
I hope you will feel enriched, entertained and loved.
