Summary: Strega Nona Has her Own Cure For Competition
Review: Stregna Nona (Grandma Witch) knows how to cure warts, headaches and love problems. How she approaches curing "competition in the workplace" is fascinating to both young and more mature readers...This story includes Strega Amelia and Big Anthony. Both characters are very interesting and amusing to read about. As Strega Nona says "sometimes the old ways may be the best ways" - especially in reading to our children.

Review: Tommy DePaola writes an interesting story about Strega Nona and her cousin. Big Anthony always makes mistakes with Strega Amelia. All the people went back to Strega Nona. I liked the illustrations very much. Lissette. R.
