Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book is wonderful for us in our 60s who grew up with Italian grandparents or parents. The essays are reminiscent of holidays, activities, everyday life & phrases from our youth. While it is always pleasurable to remember the "good old days", it is nice to share these memories with our children. This book is a great way to do it.
