Let's Celebrate!: Festival Poems from Around the World

A good quality book with some interesting poems. Great price given it follows the Hamilton Year 3 planning!

A collection celebrating 24 festivals from around the world. An eclectic selection with some verey ususual festivals featured - how about a tomato festival - an ice festival or Kwanzaa? As I read the book, I found myself really wanting to know more about these obscure festivals so I was very relieved to find that all 24 are described at the end of the book! The poems are from a wide range of writers and each is illustrated by Shirin Adl in a very distinctive style which reflects the poem. Every page is full of vibrant colour. This book is a great classroom and assembly resource and gives a super look at the diversity of world celebrations in a very refreshing way.
