Titoli in Lettura e scrittura

Lo scopo di questo libro è quello di parlare dei processi della fantasia e delle regole della creazione per renderne l’uso accessibile a tutti. Partendo dall’esame dei congegni che muovono l’immaginazione, l’autore non ci consegna, però, un ricettario per costruire storie, ma offre “materia prima”, idee, occasioni di riflessioni fantastiche utilissime per superare la muraglia della routine scolastica e per riconoscere il ruolo della creatività all’interno del processo educativo.
