La pietra del vecchio pescatore

3.5 stars

It's a children's book that has not managed to make me feel connected with or invested in the characters. However I can see how it can be highly entertaining both for young readers and for parents reading the story to them. The thing that I really appreciated was the beauty of the language. The Italian translation was simply amazing.
It's an easy story that has the pure purpose of entertaining. The references to Irish mythology were lovely and the description of the setting quite realistic.
