Il leone verde

Stefania CAMPO

his most famous character – Montalbano, who is greedy and always starving. This
becomes the occasion to offer a tasty choice of traditional Sicilian dishes, with an
important contribution from Camilleri’s family memories.
In fact, food is often present in his stories, acquiring a strong affective value,
symbolizing maternal love. And this passion is shared by the fictional
superintendent: food is the fundamental object of desire and the most striking
source of pleasure.
The author seems to lead the reader to silently sit and calmly savour these
wonderful dishes.

Sara HONNEGGER

Among the questions and the problems that the birth of a baby arises, certainly there is the aspect of
nutrition and choice of food: in particular, during the first months of a new baby’s life attention to
products becomes fundamental.
This maternal experience can lead to two innovative results: learning an ecological approach to the
world around us and facing an educational path to the appreciation of diversity.
The author confronts the problems of children’s nutrition from this particular point of view: this book
offers recipes, memories, suggestions from mothers of many different cultures, about breast milk,
family meals, first baby food and culinary games.
In conclusion, this is an intercultural reflection about feeding: healthy food for us and Earth balance.

Sara Honnegger published several works about babies’ nutrition and education (for example Piccoli
Golosi), but also about ecological feeding (for example Cucina naturale and La cucina facile ed ecologica). She
collaborates with many magazines as «Donna moderna», «Star Bene», «Marie Claire», "La cucina
naturale«,»D La Repubblica delle Donne«, the Sunday edition of»Il Sole 24 Ore", writing about
natural medicine, female health, natural feeding.
