This is the notebook of Mastro Nocciola. Sketches, drawings, and instructions fill its pages—all for building toys from simple, humble, recycled materials. What are mere notes to Mastro Nocciola become, for us, a proper manual, a guide to making creative toys that spark intelligence and engage our hands. A few basic tools are all you need: some sticks, a handful of twigs, an old wooden crate, a few nails, a bit of glue. And then, before your eyes, objects of real worth take shape.

This book speaks to adults, boys, and girls alike, inviting them to find the time and the joy of building toys together."
Our occupational therapy specialist read this book with genuine pleasure and assures us that the words we transcribed from the back cover—presented by MACRO EDIZIONI—are exactly right!
