A Submarine in the Village

By Vanessa Navicelli

What happens when an eccentric captain (who says "Poppycock " all the time) gets tired of not having any more wars to fight and decides to create his own?

It's a special day in a small village on the hills.
It's the day of the mayor's daughter wedding, and everyone is ready to celebrate.
But suddenly ... A war submarine appears in the central square
Where did it come from? How did it get there ... without any water?
It'll take a while to understand that the culprit is the eccentric captain who decided to declare war on the small hilltop village.
What will this crazy situation lead to?
What will happen when the captain (left alone in the depths of the sea for such a long time) starts to acquaint himself with the villagers?

A humorous story with a pacifist background about the discovery of ourselves and the world around us.Funny and surreal.A story to make you smile yet reflect a little bit, talking about friendship, pastries, kisses and smiles.Because another life (... another way) is always possible.

For all readers aged 6 to ... 100
A fairy tale for everyone, with 13 watercolour and pastel illustrations.

"He couldn't actually fish, but he found it quite relaxing to sit there listening to the sound of the water flowing.He had always seen the water from below the surface. What a surprise it was to look at it from above, with the reflection of the sun, the scents in the air and the sounds of the countryside."
