Description: "The game of why is the oldest in the world. Even before learning to speak, man had to have a big question mark in his head": gianni Rodari's words clarify the meaning of the "whys" of this book and take us inside a literary workshop where rationality and fantasy, science and poetry coexist. Born from two journalistic columns in which the writer answered the most disparate questions of his young readers, the "whys" once again give a measure of the greatness of Gianni Rodari, who with vivacity and irony knew how to make young and old readers reflect.
