Synopsis

A vivid diary of a boy's school year in Italy, this book reveals classroom life, friendships, and small acts of courage.

Presented as the notes of a third-grade pupil and polished by a parent, this edition follows Enrico through the first days, classroom changes, and the daily mix of joy and worry that shape a young life. The scenes blend ordinary school routines with moments of pride, kindness, and resilience, offering a window into a boy’s growing sense of duty and belonging.

Readers will glimpse classmates, teachers, and family as the year unfolds—from the crowded halls and ceremonial prize day to quiet moments of study and farewell. The book balances warmth with honest reflections on change, memory, and what it means to grow up among friends.

• Vivid vignettes of school life, friendships, and classroom moments
• Small acts of courage, generosity, and personal growth
• Snapshots of teachers, families, and community life in Italy
• A coming-of-age voice told through a careful, diary-like perspective

Ideal for readers who enjoy humane, character-driven stories set in classrooms and communities.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from The Heart of a Boy: Cuore; A Story

This book is particularly dedicated to boys of the elementary schools, between the ages of nine to thirteen years, and it might be called, "History of a School Year, by a pupil of the Third Grade of a Public School in Italy."

By saying that it was written by a pupil of the third grade, I do not wish to convey the idea that it was written by him entire, or as it appears in print.
