Product description

Even as a child, Adalina loved the rattle of the Bibliomotocarro - the small library on wheels that Maestro La Cava brought to her tiny Italian mountain village full of stories. Years later, now a writer herself, she returns and comes across the abandoned bookmobile in a garage. No trace of the old maestro.

When Adalina learns that the book tours have been on the verge of closure since a minor accident of the maestro, she realizes: the Bibliomotocarro needs her. Their attempt to save it leads them through narrow streets and wild landscapes to almost forgotten memories and children's eyes shining with happiness. She finds new friendships and in charming Gianluca someone who inspires her hope. But can she simply leave her life in Pisa behind and reconcile with her family for the Bibliomotocarro after years?

With warmth and lightness, Tessa Hansen tells of the power of literature to build bridges between generations - and to change an entire life.
