Excellent narration
Love the narration. Even though I don't understand every word, the narrator's way of telling the story keeps me interested. I found it very rewarding to read the book while listening to the stories. Looking forward to more stories in the next book.

Good listening practice
I liked that the stories start with simpler vocabulary then build up to more in the later stories. The speaker is pleasant to listen to. Great to get used to hearing Italian.

nice stories
it's a bit strange that this is supposed to be a language learning tool. They are just short stories, not very useful to learn Italian for beginners, you need to be at least intermediate, and even then what's the point? I guess,no one would buy these stories if you wouldn't say that they are for language learning.
