A fun and educational story about crosswalks and city transport system for young children, with elements of animation on pages!

Where are we going today? Circus, museum, park? Traveling around the city is easy and fun when you have a Zebra with you. Yes, it’s alive! And Zebra crosses road after road because she helps children and adults to see the world around them.

The pages of our book come alive with a type of shadow theater, ombro-cinema. By running a special striped film across the pages, we see the movement of city streets, the flickering of traffic lights, the tricks of acrobats, the fluttering of butterflies, and even the secret life of works of art.
