The little man who paints the cities - The man who paints the town

Once upon a time there was a little man named Timoteo 

Timoteo was a painter, but he wasn't just any painter: he was highly sought after for his work, because he had - how can I say it? - a magical touch when painting anything. He was truly an artist and knew how, with his brushes and his colors, to really create masterpieces. His play of light, his light brushstrokes, his creativity gave every house an air of delicacy and airiness, and in the end he managed to create unique environments, always different from one another. However, lately Timoteo had become sad, because he had noticed for some time that children no longer read fairy tales. And he visited many houses, but it was always the same story. "Modern devilries," he called them, the new children's games. Where had those beautiful stories gone, the ones he loved to listen to on winter evenings, from Grandma Giselle, by the crackling fireplace? How he missed those afternoons, where he could each time catapult himself into a brand new world and daydream! So he had a brilliant idea: from that day on he would never paint houses again, but would ask the moon for help and travel the world writing his fairy tales on every city, so that every child could finally begin to know all the fairy tales in the world. Let us give our children the freedom to imagine, because there is a time for everything, but above all there should be a time to dream
