Lonely in the Land of Letters is a dreamy book for children 3-9 years old. It devotes attention to our alphabet but it is also a book about daring to challenge yourself. It considers how loneliness is something you feel, not something you are. Elba is hurting everywhere. We get to follow her extraordinary journey to a magic never-heard-of land. She meets kooky Mr Insect and finds the sweetest little lion in her pocket. But she also faces challenges, makes tough decisions and overcomes her fears. Finally, she realizes what the pain was all about. We got to follow Elba’s journey, both the one she is doing inside herself and the one she is doing in the magical Land of Letters. The book is 36 pages of Mrs Mighetto’s typical whimsical mark of fairy tale and aquarelle.
