The collection starts with new Italian, French, English and Spanish language novelties.

“The main goal of the library is to provide children with a unique opportunity to discover and appreciate the world of comics,” explained Rachele Furfaro, president of the Spanish Quarter Foundation “Reading comics from a young age can significantly contribute to the development of reading skills, stimulating imagination and creativity. In addition, comic books offer a form of art and visual communication, allowing young readers to explore new worlds and gain new perspectives and a better understanding of different cultures.”
