Seasons and festivals for all of us July 19, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
In this colorfull book the Cat in the Hat takes us around a whole year.
Starting in winter we sail through all four seasons, it's rituals, age old and newer. The earths position to the sun, creating cold weather in winter and warmth in summer, is explained. Festivals are described with their origins and what many people do to observe them. Starting with December and it's festivals the book ends with Thanksgiving with a verse about peace and plenty in all the worlds lands. Very nice and comforting thought if read before bedtime.
Reading this with my children (7, 4 and 2) is a joy. They recognize their favorite traditions. I also got to learn a lot of interesting facts myself, like how the Easter bunny came to be. A great book to come back to time and time again, to see what season is now and what's coming soon.
On the last pages you have, like in all books of this series, a glossary for special terms and a list of other books to read about holidays.
