The Money Fairy: A Fable of Fortune, Mystery, and Magic
�� Gold coins tumbling from his hair? That's exactly what happens to Armando one crisp autumn morning in Cuor della Terra, a quiet Italian village at the foot of the Alps.
Is it a blessing, a curse, or something even stranger?
Set in the Olden Times of 1864, this whimsical and enchanting fable blends classic folktale traditions with a modern, thought-provoking mystery. Armando, a devoted family man, wakes to find himself at the center of a baffling fortune, while his adventurous brother Marco-who left Italy years ago-fights for justice alongside Abraham Lincoln in America. Meanwhile, Elisa, Armando's wise and pragmatic wife, watches with quiet amusement as her husband delights in his growing pile of gold. But something isn't adding up. Could this be the work of the Puttifurbi, mischievous tricksters of legend? Or is something even more magical at play?

- A lyrical, multigenerational story rich with folklore, humor, and wonder
