Bravo, Zan Angelo!: A Commedia Dell'arte Tale

31 pp. | Farrar | September, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-374-30953-1 $$16.00
(3) 1-3 Young Angelo begs a small part in his grandfather's commedia dell'arte production for Carnival. Angelo's inspired but unscripted performance as a little red rooster charms the audience and revives the flagging fortunes of his grandfather's troupe. Commedia dell'arte may be unfamiliar to readers, but Angelo's persistence and his final triumphant "Cock-a-doodle-doo!" will delight them. Fluid watercolors reveal the antic spirit of street theater as well as the romance of Renaissance Venice.
