Pantochino Productions Presents New Book THUMB LOVE

Pantochino Productions co-producers Bert Bernardi and Jimmy Johansmeyer have recently teamed up with best-selling children's book author Elise Primavera to create a music video to launch her new book, Thumb Love.

The Thumb Love music video was filmed in a school in Stratford, Connecticut and features over twenty-five performers of all ages. The video was captured by New York City videographer Melodie Bryant and Hui Cox and features the pop song "Thumb Love" with music by Scott Simonelli, lyrics by Bert Bernardi and vocals by Mary Mannix. Bernardi and Simonelli are the creator's of the stage musical AUNTIE CLAUS based on Primavera's award-winning book.

Pantochino Productions is Connecticut's brand new ridiculously entertaining theatre company which currently offers three fresh, original shows touring to schools and venues throughout Connecticut. Collaborating with playwright Joe Landry (IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, A LIVE RADIO PLAY and VINTAGE HITCHCOCK), Pantochino will be debuting a new off-beat comedy, LIFEBOAT, DAHLING! later this year.

Elise Primavera has been writing and illustrating children's books for more than twenty-five years. She has received numerous awards for her work and in 2004 she was asked to illustrate the Christmas Brochure for the White House. Her bestselling book AUNTIE CLAUS has sold half a million copies. Elise wrote her first novel the popular SECRET ORDER OF THE GUMM STREET GIRLS in 2006. Her latest book, THUMB LOVE, arrived at bookstores on October 12, 2010 which, coincidentally, is also National Stop Sucking Your Thumb Day.
