Mimolù

Cristina Marsi, Francesca Carabelli

The idea stems from the desire to create a comic series for the real little little ones!
The main character is Mimolù, the Bear, with his funny hat and jeans who remains the unchanged protagonist of every story, the one who, asking questions or proposing challenging missions, creates the contexts for ever-changing adventures. His other friends are Firulì (the round yellow bird), Lillalà (the turtle in red booties), Scarabò (the platypus with an orange sweater). They all have very musical names, whose final accent amplifies the idea of ​​play, movement and lightness.

The idea is to make the group grow, in order to tell a different story each time, depending on the characteristics, personalities, curiosities that can inspire new characters. However, the initial group will return during every new adventures, to facilitate identification with the created world. To unite the plots we will always find the invisible but very strong thread of empathy, friendship, sharing, discovery, play and curiosity that leads to seeing things from many points of view and always with wonder.

Genre: Comics (a series with single volumes, each one with stand-alone adventures)
Target: 3+
Format: 15,5 x 18 cm
Texts: Cristina Marsi
Illustrations: Francesca Carabelli
 

The series of MIMOLÙ waits for you!

The Perfect Day

Maria Gianola

Being friends? Easy to do! It means doing many things together, always being happy in two! But sometimes it’s not that easy. Because, without any reason, suddenly you seem to live in parallel universes with somebody you have always felt good with. Just a bad day, a gray cloud and you really don’t understand what the problem is with whom you thought to be your friend forever. But no reason to give up: a friend is able to stop and wait. He is capable of staying there with you always. He can sit next to you and wait for better times.
Nothing else is needed, in fact. Just sit there next to you, whatever the place is, and no matter how long it will take to feel better. A friend’s presence and his company, although in silence, it’s the best cure we can offer to someone we really love!
