My Chinese New Year

by Monica Hughes

No matter what religious festivals a young reader may take part in, theyre sure to love reading about all of the festivals that come to life in this new series. Each title looks at the preparations that go into each festival, what people wear, where it takes place, the food that is eaten, when it happens, who celebrates it, and why its celebrated. A case study approach is taken, following a young child as they get involved in the preparations and celebrations.

Basic but informative.

Very basic, but covers a lot of ground (with little explanation). I like that the photos follow one family.
