Gigi Has Lost His Çap by Bruno Munari
Gigi is looking for his cap... where did he ever get it? Where can it be? Let's look for it with him! Gigi opens the wardrobe, opens the suitcase, checks in the icebox, there's everything, even a shoe and an alarm clock! But not even a shadow of the hat. He searches, rummages, even finds a gigantic crab in the laundry basket! And finally he realises that the hat had always been...
Along with eight other books, Gigi has lost his cap is part of the historic Books of '45 series, which Bruno Munari dedicated himself to after the birth of his son Alberto. Books made of die cuts, holes and large, elegant designs that invite a game of discovery and research, leaving everyone hanging on the magic that paper can do.
This series – a timeless classic that in 2025 will celebrate its 80th anniversary since the first edition – has maintained its originality and aims to spark children’s curiosity, showing them that there is always something more inside of something, encouraging them to explore with wonder. Many of these texts were inspired by games and rituals Munari shared with his son Alberto, which he then chose to put on paper. For the joy of all children, and not just them.
