And here is one by Elena Cifali, introductory words by the great 'Running~ and~ Other~ Stories ~Writer' and picture maker. Elena is a real live proper runner from Sicily who lives right in the land of Etna!

A day at the beach, Fridarola and Mauri, one day in June


This is all the way from Sicilia in Italy. It is from one of the beaches around the 'Riserva naturale orientata Torre Salsa' In fact I think Frida might not have been there because of it being a nature reserve that might not allow for little dogs. But usually Frida always goes to the beach, thats why she's in this story anyway!

This is part of Beetle's story book world, because it is like a picture towards a story,or it could be inside a story that he might find one day in the world of Sea and Ocean stories - The life of Pie, Robinson Crusoe, The Old Man and the Sea, Moby Dick, the Swiss Family Robinson.. !! and here is some information about the beautiful place where this picture got made!!
