A black cat who only ever goes out during the day and a white cat who only goes out at night meet in the middle and start a beautiful relationship together.

Black Cat, White Cat

Lorenzo Clerici

Elisabetta Pica

As a boy paints a room, he finds little surprises coming from the colored part of the wall.

The White Book

Lift the flaps to set the animals free! But whatever you do, stay away from the brown box, please. Look at that little hamster in a cage, and the other animals, too a bunny, a squirrel, a bird, a frog, and even a porcupine. All of these little animals want to play outside! Luckily, you, the reader, are in charge of the keys and have only to open the cages to make these critters happy. But wait what s in that box that you re not supposed to touch? Uh-oh."

Un mare di tristezza

"Say hello to your new cat. You can tickle his chin and hear him purr. But wait--was that a raindrop? Don't let him get wet"--Page 4 of cover.

The Cat Book

Shapes reshape themselves into different animals.

Shapes, Reshape!

From up close and far away, things can look so different. Can you guess what animals you’re looking at as they zoom in, then zoom back out? No words are needed in this striking and colorful exploration of animal shapes. Bold graphic forms create a playful exercise in visual perception. At first glance, that green bump might be a grassy hill. But we’re too close to be sure. Step back (turn the page) to see a little more. Now there are two green loopy humps. What could it be? Turn one more page to reveal — of course, the squiggles of a snake! Preschoolers will see animals in a new way when they look from both near and far.

Near, Far

Ho visto una talpa. Ediz. illustrata

Gatto nero, gatta bianca

Look closely! This vibrant wordless book invites children to explore the concept of visibility. A menagerie of colorful animals can be found within this stylish book, but pay attention! When the background color changes with each turn of the page, a different animal (almost) vanishes — and another seems to appear on every spread. Who blends in with the fallen leaves? What about the trees of the forest? Brimming with visual humor, this attractive play on color and camouflage is sure to delight keen-eyed youngsters and reward their observational skills with a few giggles.

Now You See Me, Now You Don't

Chi ha il coraggio?

Day and night, black and white--this playful tale of opposite personalities celebrates the adventure of sharing life's discoveries with a friend. Black Cat--black from the tips of his ears to the tip of his tail--only ever goes out in the day. But White Cat--white from her whiskers to her four furry paws--only ever goes out at night. He picks daisies, while she gazes at the stars. When they both feel the urge to explore a world beyond their own, Black Cat and White Cat go on a journey of discovery and meet for the very first time. Vividly illustrated with bold black-and-white art, each page paves the way toward a surprise (and surprisingly colorful) ending.
