Sport as a metaphor for life and a simple language that speaks directly to young people’s hearts: the new graphic novel from the #cuoriconnessi series is now available.

This summer again sees the return of the #cuoriconnessi comic booklet, the project promoted by Unieuro in collaboration with the Italian State Police to combat cyberbullying and encourage conscious and responsible use of the internet and technology.

The new graphic novel, titled “The Story of Fabio and Milo”, is written by Luca Pagliari and illustrated by Chiara Morra, already the author of the cover and illustrations of the previous publication in the series.

An intense and timely story set in the locker room of a football team, where group dynamics, expectations, fragilities and prejudices intertwine. A space meant to embody team spirit but which, for the young goalkeeper Fabiooften excluded and underestimated—becomes a place of confrontation and personal growth.

Through this story, #cuoriconnessi invites young readers to reflect on the importance of inclusion, the value of empathy and the ability to put oneself in others’ shoes. An invitation to look up from devices and rediscover, through a story of friendship, the power of genuine relationships and words used to build rather than hurt.

As in previous editions, the booklet ends with an “edutainment” section featuring games and creative activities to stimulate both mind and heart during the summer holidays.

Printed in over 90,000 copies, it is available free of charge and without purchase obligation at all Unieuro stores and at the Postal Police Cyber Security Operations Centers. The digital version can be downloaded from www.cuoriconnessi.it and major ebook stores.
