Leo wants no part of sitting down with his family to eat Nonna's big, delizioso lunch every Sunday. "I'm not…
hungry," he insists. Not hungry? Clever Nonna gets an idea. She'll use a story to lure Leo to her table. So the pasta in her soup, called stelline (little stars), is woven into the story about a boy who journeys to his grandmother's at night. But again on the following Sunday, Leo doesn't want to eat. So Nonna expands her story, this time adding some chiancaredde (paving stones), the name of the pasta she's serving that day, to create a path for her character to follow. Now Leo's hooked. So much that he begins to badger Nonna every Sunday to reveal more pasta-based details of the story. And week by week, as Leo's relatives crowd around listening to Nonna and teasing Leo to get him to mangia (eat), he slowly comes to realize just how happy he is to have a place at this table.
