Quando vuoi fare un regalo e non hai un'idea precisa di cosa regalare, bisognerebbe donare un libro. Non c'è bisogno di una ricorrenza specifica: è sempre bello donare un libro. Veicola sempre un messaggio, un'idea, un sogno. Peccato che ogni volta che regalo un libro, il più delle volte la gente si incazzi...

If you want to make a gift and you have no idea about what to buy, well donating a book it's always a good choice. It's no necessary to wait for a specific occasion: it's always something good. A book materializes messages, ideas, dreams. Yet anytime I give a book as a gift in the majority of cases, people tend to get angry...

Daniel Pennac: "Chagrin d'ecòle"


This is an auto-biography where the author tells with irony his adventurous transformation from a dunce when he was a young student into a professor and writer.

Even if set in a french context, this book has many interesting considerations useful for other realities. In some moments, the author makes interesting reflections over more serious issues as in the case of the role of a school as filter of contemporary society and its diseases.

Surely this is not a masterpeice, but I reccomend its reading above all to young readers.
