A Christmas serial in German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, English, Greek, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Polish, Romanian, Turkish, Vietnamese and Chinese, written for this library, with a translation beside every line. Clara teaches at the school on St Nicholas Square, and this year she has been asked to run the children’s nativity play on Christmas Eve. Marco, the carpenter, is building the set, and the two of them do not get on. Then, after every rehearsal, something disappears from the locked church hall: a doll, an angel, a tin star. Only one other person has a key.

Ten episodes, written at level A2: a small mystery in each one, a clue, a suspect, and two people who annoy each other a little less every time. Read one a day through Advent. The same square and the same neighbours appear in the other Christmas series too, each at its own level, so the story grows with you.
