LAYLA<\/p>\n

When I was a little girl, Dad called me Layla, a name that means \u201cthe top of the mountain.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

Thus begins the story of Layla, the child protagonist of a magical adventure in the land of the snow king.<\/p>\n

Abandoning all the comforts of home and guided by her father, Layla embarks on a journey among the highest peaks of the mountains<\/strong>, discovering unknown people and learning new and important values<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A magic story of nature, silence and love<\/p>\n

A story to bring young people closer to the mountains and teach them how to live and love nature, how to respect it and establish a silent and profound dialogue with it.<\/p>\n

“With this fable, I tried to draw children’s attention to the possibility of living peacefully and joyfully in a different world and make them reflect, so develop an ecological conscience and greater respect for nature: renunciation, not consumption, is the key to happiness<\/strong>. Finally, I hope that I have sufficiently stimulated the curiosity and dreams of my little readers.”
