Strega Nona (Spanish Edition) Book

I think I have read this book before as a young child. My memory is tickled. I loved this book.

Strega Nona is the town witch or healing woman. People come to see her for any ails they have. She is getting older, so she hires Big Anthony to help her out with chores. Big Anthony sees her using her magic pasta pot and he is so excited he has to tell everyone and they laugh at him. So, when Strega goes to visit a friend Big Anthony fires up the pot. The town is so impressed with him, but he didn't see the full details to turn it off. A blob of pasta begins to threaten the city and Strega Nona has to save the town.

A wonderful tale about magic and playing with things you don't really understand. It's also a fun story that gets the imagination going.

The kids really enjoyed this story. They laughed along with it. The nephew kept asking if a magic pasta pot could really do that? Could that really happen? He laughed at Big Anthony. He thought this was a funny story and so he gave this 4 stars. The niece enjoyed this story too. She laughed along with her brother. She wondered why Big Anthony didn't listen to Strega Nona. She was entertained by this and she gave it 4 stars too.
