Did you know that Tomie Depaola has a web journal? It's called "tomie says..." and is updated monthly.
His entire site is a joy to read.

I first discovered Tomie before I knew he was TOMIE. When my oldest son Jesse was a baby (we're talking about 12 years ago) I would spend countless hours watching "Barney". A really sweet man would visit periodically and teach Barney and his friends how to draw something. Yep...it was Tomie Depaola.
thanks for the info--i enjoyed exploring his site. liked his picture, too!

Yes, I remember that! We also have his Quilt Story and loved it to tatters (just like the quilt!)
