From The Maker
Step into a world of micro-tales that pack a mighty punch of humour!
Short Stories presents eleven hilarious encounters between unexpected animal pairings, each told with remarkable economy. From the unseen dangers of a hedgehog at a birthday party to the unexpected uses of a chameleon’s colour-changing abilities, these bite-sized narratives showcase the art of storytelling at its most precise and playful.
Silvia Borando’s masterful comic timing turns each page into a lesson in narrative craft. With just a few words and simple illustrations, she creates moments of surprise, irony, and pure delight that will have readers of all ages chuckling.
This collection is more than just a funny book – it’s a masterclass in brevity and wordplay.
Perfect for:
