Good book for Italian study groups September 28, 2008
We are using this book in our AAUW Italian Study Group after finishing a work book. It gives us experience in reading Italian without going to the dictionary often, since the English translation is on the facing page.

I like dual language since you don't have to slow down if you come across a dificult passage. Remember to read the Italian and don't use the transletion unless absolutely necessary.
