It takes a flower
Interdisciplinary paths for a creative school
Children see the world through eyes that are different from those of adults. That is why a poppy or a rose is never “just” a flower, but a special encounter with nature and its beauty. Flowers carry wonder, questions and possibilities. The task of adults, in turn, is to learn from this ever-renewed gaze, understanding that looking at a flower means connecting with oneself and with nature. Under the scientific direction of Alessandra Falconi, the volume offers teachers, librarians, museum and cultural professionals eight interdisciplinary pathways that weave together art, history, science and poetry, restoring the flower to its role as a vital symbol and a tool for knowledge.

The school that makes you learn
“Learning isn’t just understanding: it’s feeling, choosing, remembering, trusting.” In this new book, Daniela Lucangeli guides us into the most fascinating laboratory we have: the learning brain. With a caring perspective, the author brings together neuroscience, developmental psychology and everyday classroom life to answer the question that truly matters: what does the brain need in order to learn well? A clear, engaging journey designed for teachers, educators and anyone who believes that knowledge should not be filled, but nourished.

EDUCATIONAL ALLIANCES
Building effective relationships between school and family

When these two worlds come together, every difficulty can become an opportunity for growth. Enriched with real-life situations, stories and direct experiences , the text offers a critical and thoughtful perspective: a reflective educational practice able to move beyond the “that’s how it’s always done”, grounded in competence, attentive listening and responsibility. Through 10 chapters, the book guides teachers, educators and parents along a path that alternates between theoretical reflections and practical tools, with the aim of recognising educational alliances as a tangible resource.

POINTS OF VIEW
50 flash cards for conscious argumentation and discussion
We often interpret the world around us based on our social and cultural background, our values, and our personal experiences. Therefore, the same situation can be viewed from different perspectives, and there isn’t necessarily a right or wrong one. These tools help middle and high school students reflect on everyday situations, express their own point of view, and consider those of others
The material is designed for classroom use and consists of 50 flashcards referring to events or conversations that have taken place online and in person between young people and to the use of language that reinforces stereotypes and prejudice. It provides teachers with appropriate discussion techniques tailored to a variety of situations.

This volume is designed to help lower secondary school teachers integrate the study of history with the critical reading of images. It offers an innovative, interdisciplinary and engaging approach that makes history a living, relevant subject, capable of connecting with the present and fostering in students historical, visual and critical skills.

Have you done your homework?
Breakthrough guides for parents who have tried everything
This book speaks to parents of pre-adolescents who feel they have “tried everything” and offers concrete tools, guided dialogues and practical strategies to reduce the conflicts that arise around homework. Page after page, it helps readers identify where the real difficulty lies: is it simply a lack of motivation? Disorganisation? Poor time management? Or could it relate to deeper issues involving motivation, emotions and self-efficacy? One of the book’s key strengths is its portrayal of everyday situations through two voices: that of the parent and that of the child. Two perspectives on the same afternoon, often worlds apart. Bringing these viewpoints into dialogue makes it possible to overcome misunderstandings, reduce misinterpretations and build more effective communication.

A Little Survival Guide to a Changing Planet
Feeling anxious about the planet’s future is becoming increasingly common. This illustrated book helps readers to recognise and name the emotions linked to the environmental crisis: eco-anxiety, solastalgia, eco-paralysis… but also biophilia, eutierria and other positive climate emotions. Through practical ideas, exercises and reflections, it offers tools to transform environmental sensitivity into the energy to act. Talking about eco-emotions is not a sign of weakness, but of awareness: it means being connected to the world and wanting to protect it.

EMOZIONI,
NON MALATTIE!
Le emozioni fanno parte dell’essere umano da centi- naia di migliaia di anni. Sapevi che, all’origine della nostra specie, l’essere umano non possedeva la corteccia cerebrale? In sostanza, non aveva ancora sviluppato il pensiero. Le sue azioni era- no guidate solo dalle emozioni, e in particolar modo dalle cinque emozioni di base: paura, felicità, rabbia, tristezza e disgusto.
Ognuna di queste aveva un ruolo fondamentale per la sopravvivenza: pensiamo alla tristezza, che serviva a spin- gere i nostri antenati a restare in casa, riposarsi, dormire, quando erano malati o quando c’era brutto tempo. Oppure al disgusto, che serviva a tenerli lontani dal mangiare cose

Beat your obsession
Come si origina la paura che proviamo oggi per la distruzione dell’ambiente che ci circonda? Il nostro cervello emotivo si trova davanti a un pericolo, esattamente come il leone, e per istinto di sopravvivenza produce le stesse molecole: la differenza è che l’oggetto della nostra paura, questa volta, è lontano e inafferrabile. E così noi non possiamo né scappare, né combattere.
Allora che fare? Innanzitutto, non dobbiamo preoccuparci o sentirci strani per il fatto di avere paura. Come prima cosa, dobbiamo accettare di provare questa emozione: è normale temere qualcosa che mette potenzialmente a

Gabriella Simoni NOT JUST "MARANZINE"
The girls we do not want to see
Not just "maranzine" brings together eleven intense, authentic stories by young Italian and non-Italian women marked by violence, marginalisation, abuse and loneliness. These are accounts that avoid emotional shortcuts, offering a powerful portrayal of a often-hidden reality—deep wounds, and very young lives tested far too soon. The book becomes a map of female generational distress, giving voice to the “maranzine” and to all the girls and young women fighting to be seen and heard. A powerful, necessary journey into the darker side of society, but also into the resilience, humanity and determination of those who, every day, seek a way out.
