I Was Here First!

NICOLETTA ASNICAR

Illustrations by ALICE PIAGGIO

A story of unconditional love.

There’s no getting around it: a little brother, even when you want one very much, is always an earthquake that will shatter all your certainties as an only child. Everything you have will no longer be yours alone! Everything you know will never be the same again! However, a little brother, even when you didn’t really want one, is always a surprise. Someone with whom to rediscover the world you know with a different perspective, and someone to set off with to explore the part of the world that you don’t know yet.
