Pascual and the Kitchen Angels -- Tomie dePaola

<b>Newly refreshed with a contemporary redesign, <i>Pascual and the Kitchen Angels</i> tells the story of the patron saint of cooks and kitchens with luminous illustrations by the beloved Tomie dePaola.</b> <p/>When Pascual is born, angels sing from the trees. So it is no surprise when he grows up and wants to join a monastery to help the poor. But when Pascual meets the friars, they send him to the kitchen to cook for them. <p/>Poor Pascual! He doesn't know how to cook, so he prays. And that's when the kitchen angels swoop down and prepare a feast so delicious that the friars want him to cook every night. What can he do? <p/>Tomie dePaola's charming text and vibrant, fully refreshed illustrations reminiscent of Italian frescoes capture the beauty and humor of the story of Pascual, patron saint of the kitchens.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Tomie dePaola<br><b>Publisher:</b> Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers<br><b>Published:</b> 09/13/2022<br><b>Pages:</b> 32<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.66lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.90h x 9.70w x 0.30d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781534494930<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 4-8<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 3.2<br><b>Point Value:</b> 0.5<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Lower Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>76132 / Pascual and the Kitchen Angels<br>
