This gorgeously illustrated book is a wonderful first introduction to our world's celebrations. The interesting, easy-to-understand facts, accompanied by the fun shine-through mechanism, work together to create a party on every page. " Holidays & Celebrations does a phenomenal job showcasing a wide variety of holidays from different cultural and religious backgrounds. A great choice for the classroom, many students will see themselves represented in this one." -- Little Cub Literacy "Each picture in this book comes to life when you shine a light from underneath the page. The illustrations are so colorful and look amazing with this light feature. The text associated with each celebration aptly describes the essence of each day as it is celebrated in that culture. Overall a gorgeous book to include some diversity in children's bookshelves!" -- Our World of Words "This book covers festivities and celebrations from around the world, featuring different people, cultures, and religions. Each page has bright, engaging illustrations with simple, educational text and engaging questions that can be answered by shining a flashlight (or phone light!) behind the page. Check it out!" -- Stories with Jojo
