"This illustrated story of the Wooster Square neighborhood by artist Stefania Munzi-Logus is both charming and quite poignant. It brings many of my personal memories immediately to mind. The many times I spent on Wooster Square with my grandfather, and the strong sense of security and unity in that community that was always present whenever I was there. This book is just absolutely delightful in how it can bring back memories ... from a bygone era and ... [bring] hope for the future that it holds for everyone as well" - Marc-Anthony Massaro, Sculptor "Indicando la via al Futuro,"
