On the first Christmas, Befana missed her chance to go to Bethlehem to welcome the newborn Baby. Now, each year, the good Christmas Witch leaves cookies and gifts at the homes of sleeping children, still hoping to find the Christ Child. Perfect for early independent readers, this simple retelling captures all the wonder of the Italian legend. FROM AMERICA'S MOST TRUSTED NAME IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION More than seventy years of educational research and innovative teaching have given the Bank Street College of Education the reputation as America's most trusted name in early childhood education. Because no two children are exactly alike in their development, we have designed the Bank Street Ready-to-Read series in three levels to accommodate the individual stages of reading readiness of children ages four through eight. - Level 1: GETTING READY TO READ-- (PRE-K to GRADE 1) Books are perfect for reading aloud with children who are getting ready to read or are just beginning to read words or phrases. - Level 2: READING TOGETHER--(GRADES 1 to 3) Books are written especiallly for children who are on their way to reading independently but who may need help. - Level 3: I CAN READ IT MYSELF--(GRADES 2 to 3) Books are designed for children able to read on their own. They also can be enjoyed as read-alouds.

Every morning and every afternoon, Old Befana sweeps with her broom. “Cranky old lady,” the children say. “She is always sweeping!” Sweep, sweep, sweep. But when a brilliant star glows in the eastern sky one night, and Old Befana encounters the glorious procession of three kings on their way to Bethlehem, her world will never be the same.

In some respects, the contrasts of Christmas are what make it the most delightful time of the year. It is a time of generosity, kindness and peace on earth, with broad permission to indulge in food, drink and gifts. On the other hand, Christmas has become a battleground for raging culture wars, marred by debates about how it should be celebrated and acknowledged as a uniquely Christian holiday. This text argues that much of the animosity is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the holiday's core character. By tracing Christmas's origins as a pagan celebration of the winter solstice and its development in Europe's Christianization, this history explains that the true "reason for the season" has as much to do with the earth's movement around the sun as with the birth of Christ. Chapters chronicle how Christmas's magic and misrule link to the nativity, and why the carnival side of the holiday appears so separated from traditional Christian beliefs.
