Ramadan, Rosh Hashanah, Kodomono-Hi, Diwali, Dia de los Muertos, the Festival of St. Lucia, Mardi Gras. Each month there's another holiday or special event teachers and librarians choose to explore with children. Now the authors of the very successful Neal-Schuman Guide to Recommended Children's Books and Media for Use with Every Elementary Subject have produced an equally comprehensive handbook containing the best materials, insights, and suggestions for teaching kids about holidays celebrated throughout the world. Grouped by month, and with chapters on year-round special events (such as birthdays, weddings, Powwows, and quincea�eras), this innovative and easy-to-use guide provides grade-specific advice on books, media, and activities that allow children to learn how people of various nationalities and religions celebrate holidays. This valuable multicultural education tool can be used in libraries and classrooms to engage every child in discussing the rich varieties of tradition around the world.
