Leo Lionni, artista celebrato a livello internazionale, infonde nella letteratura per l'infanzia una profonda profondità visiva e intellettuale. Le sue opere, contraddistinte da uno stile unico e una composizione ponderata, esplorano temi di amicizia, identità e creatività con sottigliezza e arguzia. L'approccio di Lionni, che fonde una sofisticata comprensione del graphic design con una narrazione sensibile, risuona con lettori di tutte le età, lasciando un'impressione duratura.
