While Children all over the world are unwrapping presents from Santa each Christmas, Italian children are celebrating with La Befana! La Befana and the Star tells the story of the classic legend of La Befana and adds a fun modern culinary twist. When La Befana is out sweeping the village on Christmas Eve and notices the sky is brighter than usual, she looks up and sees a star more brilliant than any she has ever seen. The star inspires so much love in her heart that she is inspired to bake cookies in the shape of stars and share them with children throughout the land. But La Befana makes a surprising discovery. Because she put so much love into the cookies, each person who takes a bite feels that love and for a moment begins to glow from within! You'll meet the angel Epiphany and Befana's friend Martino and you'll find out how it came to be that La Befana is able to deliver so many cookies to so many children all in one night!
La Befana and the Star is a tale of sharing and joy and is quickly become a holiday classic worldwide and extends that holiday season right into the new year, January 6!
