Welcome to Rome, where history and mystery mix like spaghetti and sauce!
Sofia is a curious girl with a big imagination and a knack for solving puzzles. One sunny February day, she starts to wonder: What's Valentine's Day really all about? Hearts and chocolates are sweet, but where did it all begin?
With her trusty Vespa and a nose for adventure, Sofia zips through the streets of Rome-visiting ancient libraries, grand chapels, and quirky historians-to uncover the surprising and silly origins of this lovey-dovey holiday.
From wild festivals with names in hats (ancient Tinder, anyone?) to a daring priest who defied an emperor, Sofia learns that Valentine's Day has a lot more history-and humor-than she ever imagined!
So grab your favorite heart-shaped treat, hop on, and join Sofia as she solves The Silly Mystery of Valentine's Day!
