Description
Balloons, festoons, lights, cake and songs! This is how we celebrate. There is always a reason to celebrate: the beginning of spring, a birthday, Christmas. But not everyone celebrates the same things at the same time. Did you know that a wedding lasts a few days in India? And that Chinese people don't celebrate New Year the 1st of January but on another day? In this cheerful book of celebrations you find out more about the fun habits of people around the world. An informative book filled to the brim with fun facts. Celebrations close to home and further from home are shown in beautiful pictures and illustrations. For all children aged 5 and up.

Reviews
Praise for MACK'S WORLD OF WONDER: "A fun and informative book. It's easy to read and is packed full of images. It has information on the different trees and animals you can find in the forest and helps you learn about them in a fun way." -- Donna Maguire, Donna's Book Blog (ALL ABOUT FORESTS) "A wonderful book that is just what I have been asking for in Non-Fiction! Because the topic is real life science students like to see actual photographs! ....The information is interesting and students will be drawn to this book on their own. A teacher could use this book in a reading center when the class is studying habitats or as a read-aloud." - Kiss the Book (Rivers, Seas and Oceans) "Remarkable... gorgeous photographs, funny illustrations, and an informative look at water in our planet's rivers, seas and oceans....Be prepared to learn and be amazed; Rivers, Seas and Oceans is an engaging book in every way." - Kendall Rautzhan, Books to Borrow, Books to Buy nationally syndicated column (Rivers, Seas and Oceans)
