A very good copy of the 1996 first edition, second printing of Strega Nona: Her Story, as told to Tomie dePaola. This charming and beautifully illustrated children’s book is signed and dated by Tomie dePaola on the title page:

"For Mrs. Rooney, Tomie 97."

Despite lacking the original dust jacket, this copy is well-preserved with glossy pictorial boards showing light shelf wear, including a minor bump to the spine tips and rubbing to the lower front corner. The book remains structurally sound, with a small, closed tear on the lower title page (repaired with tape) and minor creasing along the bottom edge of a few pages. An autograph copy sticker is affixed to the blank page opposite the title page
