My Italian 4/4H students (11th graders) are currently reading this book
Il Gufo Che Aveva Paura del Buio by Jill Tomlinson and loving it! It kind of reminds me of a contemporary version of
Le Petit Prince by
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Just as the little prince travels from planet to planet in search of love, the baby barn owl Tombolo (Plop) searches reasons to overcome his fear of the darkness and asks various characters their opinions. This is the very first book my 11th graders are reading in Italian.
