WHIMSICAL TALES 
by Lucia Alberti, author and illustrator

Confetti is a small teddy bear with golden fur and a bright red ribbon, sitting quietly on a toy store shelf as Christmas draws near. As the days pass other toys are chosen, Confetti begins to worry; Why not me? Determined to be noticed, he sets out on a journey of transformation-trying everything from costumes to creativity, and even making his way to the North Pole to seek advice from Santa Claus himself. What follows is a heartfelt journey of self-discovery, as Confetti begins to understand that he doesn't need to change who is is to be special. His story is a tender reminder that our true value lies in being ourselves.
