"""Tomie dePaola's folk style, with its clean strong lines, bold colors, and distinct shapes, is layered with artistic genius. I would like to think that if Tomie were still alive, he would be especially giddy about this book. In this collection, you'll find vignettes of Tomie's Art Mail, collected like beads on a string to accompany you through Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and the many moons of Ordinary Time."" -- Sarah MacKenzie, from the Foreword"
