- Read the story in Italian: focus on trying to understand the main ideas of the story (the characters, the major plot developments and the setting).
- Read it again carefully: highlight unknown words or grammatical constructions that are unfamiliar to you. Once you finish this read, translate all the unfamiliar words and phrases (the Vocabulary Glossary can help you!) and write them down in a notebook to help you remember them later.
- Read the English version to understand the story one final time: this allows you to understand the text fully and have quick access to the translations.

At last! A decent Italian book
The main thing I like about this book is that it's clearly read and read at a decent speed (not too fast and not too slow). Getting the reading speed right is extremely important and is something that other books fail at.
I have two main critisms.
The first is that the stories are a really dull. There seems to be a lot of talk about hair colour, eye colour and geography. They are still very valuable but a bit more creativity would make them more engaging and certainly more fun. At times it just sounds like the narrator is reading a Wikipedia page about some geographical or historical subject.
The second point is that most of the stories are too long. Maybe it's because they are dull but it seems to take a long time to get to the end before you can hear a translation. For an audio book of this kind I'd recommend shorter stories or breaking the stories into multiple parts.
Nevertheless, I think I recommend this book.

Missing pdf material to read
The description of this audio book recommends to "read" the text. So logically you would assume that the audiobook will come also with pdf document, so you can READ the text. Unfortunately there is NO PDF with text attached. That is why I give it overall 3 stares. However the quality of the stories and reading is very good for intermediary, easy to understand, does not use complicated combinations, enjoyable listening, interesting stories. So from this point of view if you don't need to read text, it is very good material to listen and understand, very well done.
