Beschreibung
A perfect holiday read for kids 4-8, this beautiful book shares a letter from Befana, the winter witch.
Befana is a remarkable character from Italian folklore. On the 6th of January, she flies on a broom through the icy winter sky to visit children and bring them presents. In this stunningly illustrated book, Befana shares her secrets in a letter to all children: how she wears her warmest cloak for the journey, and sips a special soup that makes her invisible when visiting homes. She fills the stockings of some children with sweets, but leaves lumps of coal in others. For people of all ages, she brings the most precious gift of all: the promise of Spring, and nature’s rebirth.
This enchanting story provides:
- Backmatter with facts about Befana and other winter witch traditions
- A conversation starter about different holiday and winter traditions around the world
- Enchanting illustrations that capture the magic of Befana and the beauty of winter
- Insight into Italian folklore for kids
