World records are about to be broken in Umbria! In the small town of Fabriano they will try to compose the longest poem ever written, while on 23 May in a nearby town called Città di Castello and famous for its printing houses, they will present the world‘s longest book which is expected to be 1,500 metres long and three metres wide.
All the fairy tales contained in the book aim to underpin the importance of diversity and the richness it brings to us.
The money coming from this event (promoted by local school boards) will go towards building a school in the Abruzzo region which was hit by a powerful earthquake more than a month ago.
