Set in the present day, Rosa's Bus tells the story of an old man and his young nephew visiting the Henry Ford Museum in Michigan. Rosa Parks, now a respected civil rights activist, was travelling to work in her hometown of Montgomery, Alabama, when she was ordered to give her seat to a white man. She refused and in doing so made a brave stand against racism, a stand that is recollected here, in this powerful picture book.

Fabrizio Silei was born in Florence in 1960. He is the author of many books, essays, novels and short stories for children and young adults. He founded The Platypus Atelier, a community education project. In 2018, his novel The University of Tuttomio was a finalist for the Strega Girls and Boys Award. In 2014 he received the Andersen "Writer of the Year" award.
