Il girotondo dei libri

“Il girotondo dei libri” or “the book carousel” is a community initiative designed to introduce children to the values of reuse, sharing and waste prevention through the joy of reading. A small bookcase made from recycled cardboard will be set up in a public park, creating a free book-crossing point for children and families. Children will be invited to bring books they no longer read and exchange them for new stories to discover, giving each book a second life. The initiative aims to demonstrate that sharing resources can reduce waste, encourage responsible consumption and strengthen community connections.

The event will be free and open to everyone, with the bookcase removed at the end of the day.

Our ambition is to turn this first event into a recurring monthly activity, promoting circular economy principles and sustainable habits among younger generations.
