"Cuore (Heart): An Italian Schoolboy's Journal" by Edmondo De Amicis is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The book is presented as a diary written by a young Italian schoolboy named Enrico Bottini, documenting his experiences, thoughts, and feelings during a school year. It explores themes of childhood innocence, friendship, patriotism, and societal issues through the lens of a school environment in Italy. At the start of the novel, Enrico reflects on the anxiety and reluctance of returning to school after a joyful summer vacation. He poignantly describes the festive atmosphere surrounding the school on the first day, filled with parents and children bustling to prepare for a new year. The narrative introduces important characters, including his new teacher, Master Perboni, who establishes a heartfelt connection with the students, emphasizing the importance of kindness and mutual respect. Enrico's observations about his classmates reveal a diverse group of boys, each with their distinct personalities and backgrounds. This glimpse into his early school days sets the stage for a series of moral lessons and formative experiences that follow in the journal.
