We mourn the loss of adored artist & storyteller, Tomie dePaola. Thank you creating Strega Nona, the Legend of the Bluebonnet, and so many other stories that touched our hearts. You will be dearly missed. #TomiedePaola
Hope everyone can take advantage of this sunny day and get outside for a bit! Take a walk, ride a bike, use chalk on the sidewalk! Think like a scientist to hunt for bugs and birds!
