Maya Angelou is an incredibly talented writer, and I never knew about her series of American Girl-esque books called Maya's World, each featuring a little girl from a different culture. (And each book comes with a paper doll!) This book in particular is about a little girl in Italy named Angelina who loves pizza and becomes concerned when she learns about the Leaning Tower of Pisa, thinking it's really made of pizza and that pizza will go to waste. I thought that the story was a little dumb, More...

We haven't started this book, but since it is for my daughters and I don't want to search for it later, I am putting it under the reading column.

Cute story for children. I think it must be for VERY young children though as the story was VERY simple.
