The first pages
In Sweden in December, the days are very short and dark. On December 13, families celebrate Saint Lucia Day, a festival of light.
Astrid woke up early, while it was still dark outside. Today she would be Lucia! She put on a long white gown with a bright red sash.
What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.
Talk time questions
- What did Astrid wear on her head?
- Why is light so special in Sweden in December?
- How can you bring a little light to someone's day?
