Each year a mysterious figure sweeps into town, leaving behind strange gifts in the night. No, not Santa Claus, but his sister…The Christmas Witch.
Her story begins many, many years ago when her brother was torn away from her as a child. Raised alone by a witch of the woods, Kristtörn’s powers of magic grew, as did her temper. Determined to find her long lost twin, she set out on a perilous journey across oceans to find him. But what she found instead was a deep-seated fear of her powers and a confrontation that would leave the fate of Christmas hanging in the balance.
This very short listen from actress Aubrey Plaza and her creative partner Dan Murphy is the first in the Christmas Witch series. The enchanting tale tells the story of Kristtorn, Santa’s twin sister. After being torn away from her brother and raised by a witch, Kristtorn’s powers and temper both grew, causing her to become feared and shunned by the world. Kristold’s efforts to reunite with her brother bring her on a long journey that will delight young listeners. The charming narration by the author is complemented by entertaining sound effects. This is definitely one to listen to with children or loved ones on the days before Christmas!
