        Gr 5-8-This delightful series explores how different cultures celebrate family, birthdays, national holidays, and other significant moments throughout the year. Each chapter presents a celebration in a narrative format, incorporating traditional activities, foods, and songs. Readers will discover unique customs, such as Mexico's playful cake-in-the-face birthday tradition and South Korea's first birthday celebration marking the start of childhood. In China, families honor their elders, while the Zulu introduce newborns to their ancestors through special ceremonies. Vibrant images showcase traditional foods and clothing, while fun facts appear in small text boxes. The books conclude with an interactive activity, additional resources, a glossary, and an index. VERDICT A worthy addition to any library.
