Today, Big Anthony would be diagnosed as ADD, put on medication and expected to work at a desk job.I thought this book was very good and humorous. When his father sends him south to become the assistant to Strega Nona, the cities he passes through--Pisa, Firenza, Roma, and Napoli--will never be the same! The only one I really like is The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship. I also like the use of Italian words in the story, such as "bambino", "il padrino", and "Padre". From the day he is born, Big Anthony never pays attention. Paperback (Reprint) $ 7.99. He makes SO many mistakes, but Strega Nona kindly shepherds him through it each time, with love and kindness. Eventually sent out into the world by his exasperated family, he heads south, finding a succession of jobs, none of which lasts, due to his inability to remember and follow instructions. Strega Nona only appears at the end. I loved reading about Big Anthony's journey through Italy from a clumsy baby to the mischievous young man he turned out to be. Some of the cities he passes through on his way to Calabria â Pisa, Firenze, Roma and Napoli â will never be the same.
