» Giovanni es mi hermano. » Gemma Fernández, Casa del Libro (Bilbao) ENGLISH DESCRIPTION My Brother Chases Dinosaurs is a unique story about Down syndrome that has become a literary phenomenon in Italy. A sweet, intimate book that astounds us, moves us, and invites us to reflect. To write it, Giacomo Mazzariol didn’t need to make up anything. You are five years old, you have two sisters, and you wish with all your heart for a little brother to play boy games with. One day, your parents announce that you will be getting that brother, and that he will be special. You are crazy with joy: "special," for you, means "superhero. " After his birth, little by little you understand that yes, he is different from others, but the part about the superpowers isn’t really true. At last you discover the words "Down syndrome," and your enthusiasm turns into rejection, even embarrassment. You must go through adolescence to realize that your original thought wasn’t so wrong, and let yourself catch Giovanni’s vitality before realizing that maybe he is a superhero after all. And that, in any case, he’s your best friend.
