SILÊNCIO

Sometimes silence proves to be more revealing than we can imagine. In Silence, by award-winning author and illustrator Alexandre Rampazo, the reader finds a reflective narrative, not only through the beautiful images, but through contemplating time and silence, as well as the wisdom they carry.
A young girl remembers her childhood days, especially a moment she spent with her grandfather. Telling the curious story of a caterpillar that “doesn't live in fairy tales, but that magically relives the same life”, the grandfather creates a profound metaphor about the discoveries that permeate our lives and the transformations that will inevitably touch us along our journey.
Silence is a sensitive book, full of symbolisms and metaphors, that will win over readers of the most diverse ages. A subtle story that invites us to listen, wisely, to the mysteries kept in silence.
