was always very practical. One day we went shopping with my aunt and grandma from the city and they bought me as a present a green dress made of velvet that seemed to me like the best thingh I could ever receive. The day after I played with Balos, the dog, and many of my grandma objects, her facecream too.

Of Saturn’s 53 known moons, Titan is the largest and is also the second largest moon in our solar system. Titan is bigger than the planet Mercury. In fact, if it was orbiting the sun it would be considered to be a planet. Titan has a surface covered in liquid hydrocarbons such as ethane and methane that form lakes, rivers, and seas. The biggest seas are as wide as hundreds of miles and hundreds of feet deep. Titan has thick crust of water ice and scientists think that there is even liquid water underneath it.

These on the right are two magazines covers about food that I’ve illustrated. Do you like them? Do you buy any magazine? Tell me which ones!

These instead are two version for the same book cover. I can’t dicede which is my favourite one. What do you think? This book is called “The Bar under the Sea”. It tells about a bar where we would all like to end up one night to listen to the twenty four stories of the bartender, the man with the hat, the man with the gardenia, the mermaid, the sailor, the invisible man, the vamp and the other mysterious patrons.

These are two options for “A hundred stories for when it’s too late” and it’s of course a bouch of strories to read before going to sleep. I like the one on the left better? How about you?
