Paolo Mazzucato

The absolutely true story of

La Befana

written and illustrated by Paolo Mazzucato

Part rumor, part folklore, and part magical invention— myth meets reality in this classic tale of the Italian Befana, an old woman who visits all children, naughty and nice, on the evening before the Christmas Epiphany.  

Learn how things “actually” happened that fateful night when three wiseguys, or…wise men, came searching for a newborn baby king, and got a bowl of homemade minestrone instead.
