4. THE CHARACTERS
In the course of his adventures, the protagonist encounters
some very different characters, but his curiosity drives him on.
David’s capacity to overcome the barriers of diversity, to
learn new languages and forge friendships with creatures so
different from him, conveys a positive message and teaches
young people that diversity is, first of all, an opportunity.

CREATURES AND IMAGINARY LANGUAGES
5. BEHIND THE SCENE
The project began in 2008. The author's idea is to reconcile
the child's original passion for nature with the rigour of the
scientist; his fantastic worlds emerge from the pages as vivid
and real. Thus was born the Land of Arcon, the realm of elves
and giants, of the gurblù and the kahuri, an imaginary place,
but basically one not to different from the preindustrial world.
THE FANTASTIC WORLD OF A YOUNG BOY’S IMAGINATION
A UNIVERSE WITH A WEALTH OF MAGIC AND ADVENTURE
MIRACULOUSLY SUSPENDED BETWEEN FANTASY AND REALITY
