Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story about me, as a little Italian boy born in a small town in Massachusetts. My father and mother came to this country in the early 1900s. Neither spoke English or knew anything about American money. They asked for nothing, and received nothing, from government assistance. I remember my father saying he had only thirteen cents in his pocket when he came here from the old country, but he had a strong determination to become an American. His newfound freedom to learn a different vocation, and the chance to become a businessman, gave him hope for a positive future for his family.

Download or read book Little Italy written by Peter Corona and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Little Italy: The Way It Was, Peter Corona, Ph.D. shares personal stories of the early days during the first half of the twentieth century when San Diego's Little Italy had more than 6,000 families living within its boundaries. Once known as the "Italian neighborhood" or the "Italian Colony," this thriving community was one of America's best kept secrets. In a pre-determined society that dictated life's direction from birth to death, residents followed a unique code of ethics, customs, and folkways, but most importantly, adhered to a code of silence. Through personal recollections, conversations with lifelong friends, and surveys of church and public records, Dr. Corona vividly describes the history of Little Italy's people and professions while detailing the conversations, activities, and events of life in the Italian Colony during the Depression, World War II, and the years immediately following. Others will enjoy the entertaining stories about Lou the Junk Man, Sparky's clubhouse with the secret door, Angel Garcia who smelled the fish at the Westgate Cannery, and the Washington Wharf Rats. As one of the original residents of Little Italy, Dr. Corona leaves a lasting record for future generations about a fascinating neighborhood with a unique history.

Yaccarino’s heartwarming story rings clearly with truth, good cheer, and love.” —Tomie dePaola, winner of a Caldecott Honor Award for Strega Nona

This book was released on 2018-09-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: May and Molly are the Sunbonnet babies. In 1922, their father and mother have taken them on a holiday to Italy on board a passenger liner (transatlantic passenger air travel only began six years later on 11 October 1928 by the Graf Zepplin.) The story of their visit is told from a child’s perspective. Their first port of call is Naples where their first sight is Mt Vesuvius. On their way to visit the buried city of Pompeii they first call in at a museum to learn more about Pompeii and the famous explosion of 24 August 79AD. Their hotel room overlooks the port of Naples, one if the busiest ports on the Mediterranean Sea. Looking out over the harbour and all it’s ships, the girls wonder if any are pirate ships? Later they visit “the Humpbacked Island,” really the Isle of Capri, where they explore the island and a sea cave. Their next port of call is the City of Rome and all its sights where they learn the story of the city’s founding twins, Romulus and Remus and how Rome came to be. Then they then travel North where they learn about rural Italian life before visiting the Leaning Tower of Pisa. They travel on to Venice, which they call “The City in the Sea.” Their father takes them around the city sights and they have a strawberry ice-cream on the Piazza of St. Mark and visit the Ponte Vecchio where they do some shopping. They are fortunate enough to be invited to visit a Gondolier's Home. They pay a flying visit to the tall bell tower called the "Lily in Stone," and a cathedral in Florence before returning home. So, we invite you to curl up with this unique sliver of children’s literature not seen in print for many a year; and immerse yourself, and your children, in tales written for a far more gentler time. 10% of the net sale will be donated to charities by the publisher. ---------------------------- KEYWORDS/TAGS: fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, children’s stories, bygone era, fairydom, fairy land, classic stories, children’s bedtime stories, happy place, happiness, Sun-Man's Babies, Arrival, steamer, passenger liner, Naples, Drive, Strange Sights, Visit, Museum, Afternoon in the Park, Buried City, Pompeii, Pirates, Humpbacked Island, Capri, City, Rome, Twins, Romulus, Remus, Travel Adventures, City in the Sea, Venice, Gondolier, Home, House, May, Molly, Sunbonnet babies, Italy
