i encourage those interested to seek out Athenaze (in italian) instead. i commend the effort put into this though

As an alternative, there is the Spanish translation of the Athenaze Italian edition, which is very close to the Italian one, and not like the English one.

Currently slowly trying to go through it.

Why in Italian? Athenaze has an English version as well. Is the Italian version substantively different or improved?

yes, the content is very different. The Italian version is more like what the subject of this post is, Ørberg style.

The Italian edition is an expanded version of the original textbook, but they don't have permission to sell it in other markets.

Ah, I see, thank you!
