Between Fantastic and Eco-Friendly: The Greenwood Series

Written by Barbara Canepa and Anaïs Halard, the 11-volume GreenWood series has arrived in Italy for Tunué. A magical, fun and ecological universe, a story with captivating characters and sumptuous style with a particular attention to the environmental and pedagogical aspects. 

The protagonist is the lively Saturday Club, a group of irresistible animals - from the owl Vanilla to the bat Moon, to the fox Honey and the cat Cotton - determined to participate in the village pastry competition to win the prestigious Golden Cake Cup. The rules are simple only on the surface: use vegetables, legumes, and something from a tree. But the young contestants have just 48 hours to imagine a recipe and find all the ingredients in the forest, without the help of the adults, while the cunning frog Moss always seems ready to know one more than the devil.

Between recipes to invent, mysteries to unravel, and tests of ingenuity, GreenWood - The Competition is an adventurous and charming tale, enriched by sumptuous tables and encyclopedic pages edited by Giovanni Rigano, with botanical and zoological curiosities, recipes, and details that make reading even more immersive.
The extraordinary artist of the second volume, The Competition, Jérémie Almanza, will tell Romics about it in conversation with Sabrina Perucca, Artistic Director of Romics.
