My mum read this book in her Italian lessons and gave the copy to me to read afterwards. It was good practice for me, as I'd completed the Duolingo Italian tree earlier this year and hadn't studied the language since.
The story was fun to read, and it was satisfying to be able to read a whole book in one of my weaker foreign languages. My only complaint is that some of the vocabulary hints were words I already knew, rather than the more difficult words in the text. But overall, I would definitely recommend this story to anyone learning Italian.
