Tomie dePaola

lives in our town and is a
good friend of Morgan Hill Bookstore!
Due to the hand surgery that Tomie has had in recent years,
he is no longer able to personalize inscriptions for books.
We are happy to report that Tomie is able to sign books
again, and that we have autographed copies of
all of Tomie's books that are currently in print.
You can also see Tomie's books on his website, at www.tomie.com.
If you haven't visited this wonderful site, take a few minutes to go there!

Strega Nona and Big Anthony are back just in time for the Holidays!

Order an AUTOGRAPHED COPY of Tomie's new book, STREGA NONA'S GIFT, $17.99.

Strega Nona, Big Anthony and their whole village cook and bake and feast through all the holy days of the Nativity Season.  Everything smells so delicious that Big Anthony just has to sneak a taste . . .

It will come as no surprise that Big Anthony does not exactly follow Strega Nona's
instructions about planting a vegetable garden!  The consequences of his good hearted
efforts will make you laugh - and maybe learn a lesson, as well!  Tomie's vibrant, deeply
colored illustrations add special pleasure to this delightful story.  Tomie dedicated
Strega Nona's Harvest to our good friends at Springledge Farm, our  local farmstand
right in the middle of town.  You can check out Springledge (and Greg's action-packed
newsletter) at www.springledgefarm.com.


Kids of all ages love Tomie's books! 

Strega Nona (and her pasta pot) return in this FABULOUS pop-up edition.  Tomie worked
with the masters of pop-up engineering, Robert Sabuda and his team, to bring the beloved
story of Strega Nona to new heights of artistic expression.  Strega Nona's wise and
generous spirit have enchanted generations of children.  Now children of all ages will be
captivated by her story and by the amazing doors, slides, spills and pop-ups that bring
Strega Nona, her friends and family to life!
