A book to welcome a new member of the family. With illustrations and pop-up details that communicate warmth and feeling.

Antonio Mingote and José Manuel Sánchez Ron, colleagues at the Spanish Royal Academy, have joined forces, this time in order to study, through the mastery of their drawings and words, 'all that is above our heads', the world that the young and daring Icarus of mythology started to explore.

With a great sense of humour, the texts that constitute this book deal with very different scientific topics: statistical lies, the determinist chaos, the globalisation of communications, the dangers of computing, or mathematical questions around prime numbers.

The old nanny of the Morales family leaves, after years in retirement, to take to the mountains. When the family find her, she is holding two bundles, one under each arm: on one side is a deformed baby, and on the other a honeycomb with its bees. When the nanny insists on keeping and caring for the child, the Morales Cortés family decides to adopt him.
