library


This morning I went to the public library (yessss we do have a public library with a kid corner HAHAHA seems strange but we have) and took some books for Momichan.

One of theese is "Attenti alla casa stregata" related to the Halloween night, the other is a book of Richard Scarry. When i saw it I decided to take, it was my prefered book when I was little and somewhere inmum's house I still should have, we will have to search for it.

Richard Scarry was an american writer, he has written more than 300 books for kids but I guess the one everybody knows about is "The fantastic world of Richard Scarry" about a little town inhabited by various characters named Busytown (in Italy is called "Sgobbonia").

Recently his characters are on a popular tv cartoon on the air on Rai YoYo.


One of the most popular characters is Zigo Zago, a funny worm, he usually wears tyrolean hat and a shoe on the end of his tail. His best friend is Hucke Cat (in Italy Sandrino) who has a little sister called Sally. Zigo Zago drives and apple shaped car, Huckle Cat has a normal red car and Sally has a scooter.
The Cat father has a little supermarket and the kids love to solve the various misteries which happens inside their little town. They always solve them togather with Zigo Zago and most of the time with the two Pig brothers Pig Will and Pig Won't who always quarrel for everything, everyone wants to help solve cases but they are not intelligent as much as Huckle to understand and collect proofs so most of the times the make disasters :) Sally instead is very helpful to her brother and amuses so much togather with the worm Zigo Zago to discover what is going on in town.


(Hilda Hippo, Sally and Hucke Cat, Zigo Zago, Pig Will and Pig Won't)


Other characters are Sergeant Murphy (sergente Multa) a cocker spaniel motorcyclist policeman, Gorilla Banana, Hilda Hippo, mr Fixit, a fox who repares everything, mrs Honey, a bear teacher in the school, doctor Lion, Pig Will and Pig Won't, two pig brothers who drive a sausage car and are friends of Huckle Cat and Sally.
