When a splendid procession led by the three Wise Men passes by Old Befana's house, she attempts to catch up. She never does--but is transformed into a visitor who at Christmastime leaves gifts for children and sweeps their rooms clean. DePaola's ink and watercolor illustrations use flowing lines and glowing colors to propel the story (based on Italian legend) and attract the eye. (c) Copyright 2018.
