A classic fable about the search for identity, from Caldecott Honor winning picture book creator Leo Lionni.
Pezzettino lives in a world in which everyone is big and does daring and wonderful things.
But he is small, just a -little piece, - which is the meaning of pezzettino in Italian.
-I must be a piece of somebody.
I must belong to someone else, - he thinks.
How Pezzettino learns that he belongs to no one but himself is the joyous and satisfying conclusion to this beautiful mosaic style picture book.
