Storie Piccole Piccole - Che tempo fa, nonna?
Che tempo fa, Nonna? | What's the weather like, Grandma?
A Storie Piccole Piccole picture book for children learning Italian, ages 4–8 · Hardcover
Nonna Rosa lives far away, but every morning she phones Luca with the same question: "Che tempo fa?" Sun means a hat, rain means an umbrella, snow means boots. Then one day Nonna doesn't call, and the doorbell rings instead, under a big bright rainbow.
With one short, repeating sentence on each page, Che tempo fa, Nonna? introduces Italian words for weather and clothing through a tender story about grandparents and the people we miss. Each page has a small English translation, so parents can read it confidently even if they don't speak Italian, and children can soon "read" it on their own.
- Simple, patterned Italian that young children quickly join in with
- English translation on every page
- Weather and clothing words, plus a question children can use every day
- No worksheets or exercises, just a cosy story to enjoy together or alone
- Bright, flat illustrations in a warm, hand-drawn storybook style
Perfect for bilingual and heritage-language families, children with grandparents in Italy, early Italian learners at home or school, and a lovely gift from a nonna or nonno.
