Every Month Is a New Year: Celebrations Around the World

56 pp. | Lee | May, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-62014-162-5 $20.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Susan L. Roth. In this spectacular volume, child-centered poems and intricately designed collages, incorporating papers from all over the world, introduce religious and secular New Year celebrations. Familiar festivities, such as the ball dropping in Times Square, are celebrated beside the less-familiar (to American readers): Nowruz in Iran (March); Enkutatash, the Ethiopian New Year (September); and more. Enjoyable for young children, yet all ages will learn much from the excellent supplementary material. Bib., glos.
