Le scarpe della Befana

by Soldera Annamaria
Le scarpe della Befana

On the night of Epiphany, many large socks hanging from the city’s fireplaces wait for Befana, flying from house to house with her broom, to fill them with sweets (or coal, if the children have behaved badly!)But this year, just before leaving, something went wrong and the nice old lady found herself without her precious shoes. So here she is running into the world of fairy tales to look for new ones: from Cinderella to the Puss in Boots, from the Wizard of Oz to Silver Skates … unfortunately, none is good for her. So will she be able to solve the situation and deliver also this year sweets (or coal) to all the waiting children?After The True Story of the 25 Santas Annamaria Soldera and Yvonne Campedel tell another magical character, the Befana. With the usual irony and the rich and colorful illustrations they take the reader into an unusual and funny story, where there is no lack of the other characters typical of Christmas.

Soldera Annamaria

Annamaria Soldera inherited hes family’s passion for stories. Those written in big colourful books, those whispered before sleeping, the playful ones to listen to in the middle of the meadows. The ones you don\’t know if true or just imagined. For her, stories have become so important that she has started looking for them all over the world. She listened to them, read them and, as soon as she could, started telling them in books.  She’s author of La vera storia dei 25 Babbi Natale ( Nomos Edizioni)
