Hi, my name is Petros Panaou and I am a graduate student in Children's Literature at Illinois State University. I am a great admirer of Mr. Trivizas and his work. I have created this site based on Eugene Trivizas' book The 88 Ntolmadakia. The book is published in Greek (as far as I know it hasn't been translated in English yet) and is part of a choose-your-own-adventure picture book series called The Multistotries (in translation). In translating part of the book, I also had to change the title. Ntolmadakia is a greek food not very well known among English speaking population, so I've changed it to cannelloni: "The 88 Cannelloni". The book offers itself for the World Wide Web. Choosing your own adventure becomes easier and more fun when hypertext is used. Only a part of the book is presented in this site. Out of the 88 different stories interweaved in the book, only 20 are included in this site. While translating and repurposing the book, I tried to stay as close as possible to the writer's intentions. I would be glad to read any comments you might have.
