BIG ANTHONY AND THE MAGIC RING, written and illustrated by Tomie dePaola, was published in 1979. This is the second book featuring Tomie's original character, "Strega Nona."

Publisher's Note: "When springtime arrives in the little town of Calabria, Strega Nona (Grandma Witch) notices that her helper Big Anthony is less attentive than usual to his chores. 'What you need is a little Night Life,' she advises him. How her advice and, of course, a little of her magic conspire to raise Big Anthony's spring fever to an alarming degree will delight old fans and create new ones when they are introduced to Tomie dePaola's warm, zany world of human nature and its foibles."
