dePaola, T. (1998). Big Anthony. New York, New York: Scholastic Inc.

Brief Annotation: On a bright, beautiful, sunny day a family was gathered at their farmhouse in Italy. It was the christening of the first born son, Anthony. Anthony, was not one to just sit still, he seemed to get into trouble no matter where he was. The little boy grew so tall that people now called him Big Anthony. Because trouble followed Big Anthony, the family sent him away. Anthony was very excited to start his new journey, but the people he came across were not excited about the trouble that followed him.
