Description

When Big Anthony, a homely farmer boy, starts to decrease in health and happiness; Strega Nona, the town's “Grandma Witch," suggests dancing the night away in the town may help lift his spirits. He likes the idea, but does not feel like anyone would want to dance with him because of his looks. After Strega Nona went inside for the night, Big Anthony caught her using a magic ring to make herself young and beautiful again before going to dance. The next day, Big Anthony believed that if he could just get that ring in his possession, he could make himself look so handsome that all of the ladies would want to dance with him. In this book, the reader will find a simple, yet humerous lesson on the importance of being content with their appearance. 30 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
