Famous Robberies (the world's most spectacular heists)
No guns, no violence—just nerve, precision, and a plan. Some of the world’s most legendary heists didn’t rely on brute force but on patience, obsession, and imagination. From the Great Train Robbery to the Antwerp diamond heist and the Citibank hack, this book walks through the real-life stories of those who did the impossible.
Told in retro-newspaper style, with sharp illustration and vivid pacing, Famous Robberies brings the thrill of each act to life—for kids curious about history, investigation, or just how someone might (almost) get away with it.
Illustrated by Julio Antonio Blasco and edited by Soledad Romero, both with deep roots in visual storytelling, this book has the kind of layered charm that makes it linger on your shelf long after reading.
I keep this one in my shop because I love books that lean into complexity—even for kids. It’s a reminder that storytelling doesn’t have to flatten out the world to be engaging. And honestly, I’d recommend this one to adults too.

Product information
Take care of your clothes and they’ll last beyond seasons.
-
Wash less, air more.
-
Follow fabric-specific care: wool and silk prefer gentle hand wash or dry cleaning; cotton and synthetics can be washed cold.
-
Avoid tumble drying when possible — it shortens the lifespan of fibers.
-
Store knits folded, not hung, to keep their shape.
-
Leather ages best with occasional conditioning and proper storage.
Cotton
A fabric that carries everyday life. Breathable and versatile, softening with time and wear. Denim and jersey tell their stories through fading, stretching, and the patina of repeated use. We value cotton for its honesty — a fabric that grows better with you.
Wool
A natural insulator, warm yet breathable. Wool regulates temperature, resists odor, and is built for longevity. From fine merino to heavy knits, it balances softness and strength. We see wool as a living material — one that requires care but rewards it with decades of use.
Linen
Light, durable, and textured. Linen creases not as a flaw, but as its language: marks of movement, evidence of wear. It is strongest in simplicity — airy shirts, loose trousers, summer layers that hold both fragility and resilience.
Silk
Smooth, lustrous, delicate. Silk carries light differently from any other fabric — it reflects, shimmers, and changes with movement. While fragile to care for, it is unmatched in presence. We treat silk as a fabric of occasion and attention.
Leather
A material that never stops evolving. Leather holds memory — every crease, scratch, and patina is a record of time. Conditioned and cared for, it lasts for generations. We see leather as a dialogue between craft and use, where the wearer becomes part of its design.
Blends
Sometimes fabrics are combined — natural with synthetic — to create balance: strength, flexibility, stretch, or weather resistance. We respect blends when they serve purpose and longevity, not trend. A thoughtful blend can bring durability and comfort without compromise.
