Product Description
The Kids Europe Italy Discovery Journal updated for 2006 is a guidebook to Italy for kids only. If you are traveling to Italy with children, they will love seeing the country from the perspective of what the unusual, weird or exciting. Educational insights into art and history are offered and there is a strong focus on appreciating the culture and Italy of today. There is so much to enjoy: food, drama, and a unique approach to life that makes Italy special. The author uncovers the goofy, mysterious and strange aspects of history and art -- things that penetrate the attention of kids. Most guide books focus on churches and museums which can be monumentally boring to children. This little guide and journal can make the sites fun and can open up new pleasures to the whole family. The Italy Discovery Journal is not a standalone guidebook, but a personal guide and journal for kids 6-16 traveling in Italy.

Educational and fun, 2008-08-29
This book is exactly what we were looking for. Little tidbits of cultural and historical information packaged in a light-hearted, fun manner yet not overly dumbed-down.

Great Travel Preparation for Kids and Families, 2008-03-03
I travel to Italy a lot on business and I'm taking the whole family for the first time. We've been reading on the internet and other travel books in preparation, but came across this one and thought we would give it a try. It's excellent. In addition to being full of good travel advice and things to look for that are fun for kids of all ages, it is also a good "study guide" of sorts. We homeschool our children and this is the kind of book that is perfect to help teach them about a new country and culture. I highly recommend it.

This Book Rocks , 2007-04-26
My kids (and I) think this book rocks. We happen to live in Italy but, even after 18 months here, we still find things in this book that surprise us. The book makes historical sites interesting and fun by pointing out things that kids would find fun and interesting. We have explored "Strange Parks" and located almost all of the license plates and cars listed as we travel around Italy. I'm always surprised as I read it to find more information that I didn't know, more things to try and places to go. We hope to go to Paris soon and I'll be ordering a copy of Pat Byrne's Paris book first.

Italy Discovery Journal, 2007-03-04
Pat Bryne provided the personal attention we all hope for when conducting an internet transaction. Her book, Italy Discovery Journal, is both entertaining and informative for a child's natural curiousity. We gave them as gifts which were well received and, reportedly, heavily utilized prior to, during and even following our nephews trip to Italy.

journal, 2006-04-25
My boys used this journal both times we went to Italy. It gave us a lot of ideas and sparked some that were not in the book. They liked that they didn't have to bring the entire journal around with them; they could just take out the pages that they needed. Even my teens took some ideas, like charting gelato flavors. (Same flavor changed from place to place.) The journal made some of the lesser kid-friendly activities more enjoyable for them, therefore, more enjoyable for us. We are looking out for journals for more countries.
