My grandfather was a cherry

This book is the family history of the boy Tonino, told on his behalf. Simple and fabulous at the same time. One that will touch everyone with familiar situations, events, phrases and fears. Tonino has a mother and father who do not always find a common language. There are grandparents from the city, and there are from the countryside. And they are completely different, because they live in different worlds. And it is the village grandparents - Ottaviano and Teodolinda - with their words, deeds, the way they are, who open up to Tonino, and therefore to us, the treasures of emotions, teach us to understand ourselves and our loved ones, to perceive and reinterpret even the most complex things and phenomena. Even death, which is an integral part of life. This story is a return to childhood with its possibility of the impossible and a reminder that miracles exist next to us, and that, despite sadness, injustice and despair, we will still be able to see them if we only open our hearts to them.
