Tomie’s sister, Judie, was working on the October 9 crossword puzzle in the HARTFORD COURANT last night and came across this clue…
“Strega ____”: Tomie dePaola Caldecott winner whose title means “Grandma Witch.”
She answered correctly!
(To set the record straight, STREGA NONA was a Caldecott Honor award recipient and not the Caldecott Medal winner.) (Bob)
