About the book
Pedro was a boy who lived with his head in the clouds. Ever since he discovered that the Moon was a large rock floating in the sky, he became fascinated by rocks. And so, one day, he stumbled upon a turtle that looked like a rock, which he named Moon. A great friendship was born between the two, sharing the boy's growth, losses and discoveries, with the poetic works of Odilon Moraes.

About Fine Art Printing
These are those created with techniques and materials that use the most rigorous criteria today to achieve an impression with museum longevity.
The papers are 100% cotton. The inks, which are made of mineral pigments, are not soluble in water, therefore they do not fade. And the color fidelity, by using RGB, is much greater than common printing.
A work printed in fine art, therefore, deserves to be signed and numbered, and can last a lifetime.
