Nel mio giardino il mondo (2019), written and illustrated by Irene Penazzi, is a wordless picturebook that follows the daily life of three children in their garden throughout the four seasons. Each page depicts the children engaging in different activities, such as building small structures, observing insects, playing with a red ball, and lighting small fires. As the months pass, the garden changes, showing the growth of plants, the presence of animals, and the shifting colours and atmosphere with each season. The story moves through spring, summer, autumn, and winter, illustrating the rhythm of life in the garden and how the children interact with their environment. Without text, the narrative relies entirely on the detailed illustrations to guide readers through the passage of time and the small adventures of the children in their garden.
