Review:

"Fictional children describe family celebrations in these volumes that are suitable for either individual or group reading. In each title, short chapters have double-page layouts that showcase preparations, discuss the featured event's history and origins, and describe how the narrator's family celebrates it. Religious aspects are covered in a general way that emphasizes history and tradition. Paragraph-length sidebars provide supplemental details. All the cartoon illustrations are nicely done, with bright colors and animated characters―although those drawn by Saunders are the most engaging. The books conclude with instructions for a simple craft or recipe. Appealing selections." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple
