On the other side of a bridge, happy people lived. The Chief of the city, however, never laughed and the smiles of those people annoyed him to the point that he promulgated a law: those who lived beyond the bridge had to wear a star on their clothes, so as to always be easily recognisable... A book that comes to life from the direct experience of Mirko Montini, a primary school teacher, dealing with the theme of Remembrance Day. The need not to offend the sensitivity of the little ones is accompanied by that of giving answers to the children: why did it happen and, above all, can it happen again? Then the idea of ​​narrating through archetypes was born, alluding to history but above all with the aim of making people understand that, in the end, those who do evil don't get away with it. A story that, quoting Liliana Segre, "ends well", a book that makes you reflect, focused on optimism, on fighting injustices, on the value of feeling free, therefore suitable for the period of Remembrance, but not only. The images, original and in comic style, are by the young illustrator Marco Fazzari.
