A modern fable about greed. It's a picture book, sure, but the message would be best received by older children...and certainly some adults.
A picture book that is both serious and funny. Fausto a middle aged man, claims that he owns everything, until he tries to own the sea. The sea is unimpressed by Fausto's declaration. Fausto gets out of his boat to show the sea what's what, but it turns out he doesn't know how to swim. "The sea was sad for him."
