Who is Gian Burrasca?
Giannino Stoppani,
named Gian Burrasca
(John Storm), is always
in trouble with his family,
because he can’t prevent
from telling the lies or
making fun with others.
He is nine years old and
every day he writes his
adventures and jokes to
his diary.
The novel was written in 1919 and the author
“dedicates it to the Italian children...so that
they can hand it to their parents...!”
We dedicate our work to the European
