A SNEAK PEEK OF THE 1ST LETTER

AROUND THE WORLD

FERRANDINA, ITALY

Ferrandina, a quiet rural town in southern Italy, is a place where teachers are few and access to books and libraries is scarce - an unfortunate reality that too often limits the imagination and possibilities of its children.

ANTONIO LA CAVA

Maestro La Cava, a retired teacher, heartbroken by the lack of books, teachers, and libraries in rural southern Italy, turned his van into the Bibliomotocarro, a roaming library for children. He’s spent years driving from village to village, delivering stories and hope to places where stories are often out of reach.
