About This Book

Tomie dePaola's beloved and bestselling "grandmother witch" gets some friendly competition in this beloved addition to the series!

Strega Nona has cures for warts and headaches, even lovesickness. She uses old-fashioned potions and magic and the villagers in Calabria flock to her door.

But when her friend Strega Amelia comes over the mountain for a visit, she brings more than just gossip. Soon she's set up her own shop, using the latest modern gadgets, offering sweets and cappuccino—to all of Strega Nona's regulars! Looks like Strega Nona's met her match, unless she can come up with a cure for Strega Amelia!


"A pleasure to read aloud, this features the broad humor that young children relish."—Booklist
