If your Italian you have got to read all of Tomie's books!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE all of Tomie's books. If you are Italian and even if you aren't these books are wonderful to read. My Grandkids love them. Don't miss out by not getting these books all my pizanos.

great Christmas book

This book, by the crative genious of Tomie dePaola, really is a wonderful read for the Christmas season. The story is the legend of how panetonne, the Italian Christmas bread, was created by a baker in Italy. Resplendent with dePaola's signature style drawings and a good, readable text, this book will be one we'll go to every year for Christmas -- and of course, make panetonne for the family afterwards!
