The real magic is inside us: a fantasy book explains why to the young people

The Emerald Table, written by Sergio Marchi, is the first Fantasy book explaining the young readers that they have already got all the resources to obtain the best from themselves and from their lives.

How can an educational message be transmitted through an involving book and using the young people’s language? It’s the challenge which Sergio Marchi – author of numerous successful young people’s books in Italy - has decided to accept, with his last publication “the Emerald Table".

The book, especially dedicated to young readers, interlaces the best qualities of Fantasy in a skilful and fascinating way, turning in the meanwhile the young reader’s attention towards an educational, spontaneous and unaffected teaching. Not only is this reading highly involving, but it is also endowed with a strong instructive value, able to address friendly to the readers’ minds.

It is therefore the key to start making a little hole in the enigmatic world of teenagers who have often difficulties in listening to the adults’ message, withdrawn in their age, so difficult and rich of generational clashes.

“When I had for the first time the idea to write down this book, I was thinking how I could help the young to get a better confidence in their skills and capacities" states Sergio Marchi, the author of this novel. “So I realized that the only true way to pass the message was to represent it with the language which was the natural language of the young."

A revolutionary, new concept, far from the traditional market logics, but which is giving unexpected results also in the sale sector. The book has also been tremendously successful among Italian and Greek readers, and it is now available in the English language on the American portal lulu.com (soon also available in the main bookshops, such as Amazon and B&N)
