Sinossi
A tredici anni Kokoro trascorre le giornate nella sua stanza, affidando al brusio della televisione il compito di attutire i pensieri e i rumori della vita di fuori. Da quando le cose a scuola si sono fatte troppo difficili, e cosi che ha deciso di rispondere al disagio e al dolore. Scomparendo. Fino al giorno in cui una luce improvvisa dentro lo specchio la rapisce per trascinarla altrove: in un castello abitato da una strana Bambina e da sei ragazzi che come lei hanno smarrito qualcosa. L'innocenza dei sogni. Le istruzioni per vivere. Il coraggio che serve per accettare se stessi. Solo raccogliendo la sfida che la Bambina dalla faccia di lupo propone loro, Kokoro e gli altri potranno scoprire che cosa li ha portati fin lì. E ritrovare ognuno a suo modo la strada del mondo. Età di lettura: da 12 anni.

“How awesome it would be if one of them spotted her, and she could introduce them to her mother as ‘my friend’.“ I CRIED YALL. There are few books that i can claim i full-on bawled while reading that I couldn’t see the pages anymore…. but this is one of them. The story is built around these children Leggi tutto
Lonely Castle in the Mirror is a touching magical realism story about mental health and friendships. The thought of returning to school makes Kokoro sick to her stomach. One day when she’s lounging at home, she suddenly looks up at her mirror and notices it is glowing. She presses her hand to it, an Leggi tutto
My first book of the year, and perhaps the greatest book I have ever read. There is something about little Kokoro that speaks to little Sivan - I don’t think words could begin to depict the feeling of tightness in my chest, but I am so touched. I would usually finish a book like this in a matter of Leggi tutto
I love this book very much. Simple story but educational. I admire the creativity of the author to create this story. You will like this book too.
Don't believe that catchy book blurb. It promises us the fantastic journey at the castle and the quest for 7 children to find the Wish Key. Sounds interesting, right? However, what these kids actually do are just playing games and sipping the tea from nine to five. The fragile bond between them and
