Description

Enter the marvelous, magical world of Strega Nona!

This wonderful treasury features six favorite stories about Strega Nona and her sidekick, the bumbling Big Anthony--including the original Strega Nona, as well as Strega Nona Meets Her Match, Strega Nona: Her Story, Strega Nona Takes a Vacation, Strega Nona's Harvest, and Strega Nona's Gift. Tomie's brand-new introductions to each story take readers behind the scenes to see how Strega Nona's world has developed through the years. Also including an original lullaby--with sheet music--a map of Strega Nona's town, and some fun recipes, this collection will give readers and music lovers much to savor.

Strega Nona, Tomie dePaola's beloved "grandmother witch," has been enchanting readers since the publication of the Caldecott Honor Award-winning Strega Nona in 1975. Strega Nona's gentle humor, irrepressible spirit, and matter-of-fact approach to life have won her legions of fans young and old, and the American Library Association called her "an enduring character who has charmed generations of children."
