This article proposal is to think about history of education highlighting the research on Italian nationalist politics and educational proposals brought to Brazil. Its goal is to investigate the values in those books in order to promote the Italian identity and the attachment to the mother nation on the Italian and Italian’s children students who were part of an immigrant group living in São Caetano's colony. To do so the reading bookPiccolo Mondo, for boys and girls of the fourth class in the elementary school created by theSocietà di Mutuo Soccorso Principe di Napoli,was investigated. This paper belongs to theAnnales Schoolperspective that opened new interpretative frontiers, enlarged the documental sources and investigation horizons, among which the studies of material culture is highlighted. By constituting the culture of the school, the reading books do not integrate this culture in an arbitrary way; contrariwise, they are used and organized purposefully as carriers of the broader social culture dimension.
