Lontano, lontanissimo is my second book as a full-time author.

Martina is the only girl in her class to celebrate her birthday during the summer holidays. Every year, to the fateful question “Where do you want to celebrate your birthday?”, the answer is always the same: “Far, far away!”. So, between snow-capped mountains, mysterious jungles and sparkling metropolises, Martina blows out her candles in incredible places. But this year something goes wrong. An unexpected event forces her to stay home, and Martina finds herself facing a fear she had never wanted to admit: what if, by staying here, no one remembered her birthday?

What he will discover, however, is that people’s affection does not need great journeys to be felt.
An illustrated book that talks about expectations, insecurities, the fear of being forgotten, the warmth of those who love us – wherever we are – and the importance of giving others the opportunity to show their affection.
