Reviews

""If you love language, if you're curious about the world, Michela Tartaglia's An Apple a Day will tickle you silly. This beautifully illustrated, frisky little book turns familiar phrases around and around like a prism."" —Jon Mooallem, author of Wild Ones, This is Chance!, and Serious Face


Author Information

MICHELA TARTAGLIA is a native Italian, born in the province of Turin, Piedmont. She moved to Seattle for a sabbatical year in 2006 after completing her master's degree in philosophy at Alma Mater Studiorum—University of Bologna, and has since made Seattle her adopted city. Her passion for linguistics and languages is captured in her first book An Apple a Day, first published in Italy by Nomos Edizioni. She cofounded Pasta Casalinga, an intimate lunch spot in the heart of Pike Place Market. Her recipes for Pasta Casalinga inspired her second book, the cookbook Pasta for All Seasons. She lives in Seattle with her two daughters, Viola Rosa and Eva Luna. DANIELE SIMONELLI is a full-time freelance illustrator based in the eternal city of Rome, from where he has fought against the use of clipart for ten years and counting, and has created work for editorial, advertising, and design industries with international clients.
