Italian School Exercise Books - Quaderno #1

(There are eight different quaderno in the set, each is numbered on the back, and the illustrations follow the storyline of the film (pretty much). This is number 1, with a very nice illustration from the opening sequence with Alice’s sister reciting the history lesson and Alice making the daisy chain for Dinah.)
