Massimo's Meatballs

Massimo's Meatballs is a fun story about a young boy and his Sunday ritual of eating meatballs. When Massimo realizes that his father is not there to make the Sunday treat of traditional Italian meatballs, he takes the task on himself! He recalls the recipe from memory, improvises when necessary, and uses the help of his beloved dog and next-door neighbor, Carmine. The story is a great metaphor for young people to learn about the comfort of traditional home-cooked meals, how important it is to have friends and neighbors to rely on, and that anything is possible when you put your mind to it.
