Auction Description
Strega Nona written and illustrated by Tomie DePaola ©1975

Strega Nona - "Grandmother Witch" - is the source for potions, cures, magic, and comfort in her Calabrian town.  Her magical everfull pasta pot is especially intriguing to hungry Big Anthony.  He is supposed to look after her house and tend her garden but one day, when she goes over the mountain to visit Strega Amelia, Big Anthony recites the magic verse over the pasta pot, with disastrous results.  

In this retelling of an old tale, author-illustrator Tomie DePaola (whose middle name is Anthony) combines humor in the writing and warmth in the paintings as he builds the sotry to its hilarious climax.

Caldecott Honor Book

Kirkus Choice
Horn Book Honor List
Nakamori Prize
Brooklyn Museum & Public Library Art Books for Children Citation (N.Y.)
