"Le pagine" series

For the most greedy readers

Every photo inspires a story. This is how "Pensieri dal finestrino" (and their older cousins, "Racconti dal finestrino") were born: an image and a very simple short story. Beginners can also practice the most common words by reading short family stories ("Il mio albero genealogico" and "Voci di quartiere"), while those who already know a little Italian can find "Storie di paese" and "La famiglia Rossi".

For more adventurous readers (at level B1), these are joined by the collection of detective stories "Naturalmente veleni", the play "Pranzo di classe" and the epistolary exchange "Una lettera al mese".

Level B2 students can read the "Quattro racconti brevi", "I racconti di Henrik il monaco" and discover "Un po' di giornate speciali", dedicated to international/world days, which have given rise to purely fictional stories.

Our shelves also stock short stories: "HC e la zia Elvira" (where young Rasmus becomes a detective), "Singapore Blues" (where there's a real detective, and he must solve a mysterious crime), "Pecio, guerriero solitario" (set in ancient Abruzzo), "Caravaggio" (a "guided reading" book that's partly truth and partly fantasy), and "Wind and Sun" by our friend Paolo Ninzatti.
