Learn about Italy through these fun and inspiring children’s books. Learning about different cultures, people and places around the world is so important. Kids learn appreciation of others and that their way of life is only one way to live in our big wide world. Add these books about Italy to your homeschool curriculum or supplement your history, geography, and social studies lessons.
Create an Italian unit study or just enjoy these books about Italy on their own with your kids. I included some Italian folktales and stories as well as an Italian cook book for kids. My favorite way to learn about any country is through food! I probably don’t have to twist your arm too hard to convince you to enjoy some Italian foods while you study.
