In this episode, the storyteller, Kathy Shimpock, explores La Befana, a crone character from Italian folklore.  Befana appears on January 5th to give gifts to children.  I'll share with you my story that consolidates many of the tales surrounding her.  Finally, we'll look at how La Befana compares to some other legendary figures (who also appear during the season of Epiphany). Remember,  Befana shows us that it's never too late to go on a true adventure! Story:  Traditional interpretation by Kathy Shimpock.Cover illustration:   CC0 Dominio publico.Music:  The Snow Queen Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com).  Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License.  http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Copyright 2022 Kathy Shimpock.
