Book Review: Great primer on Japanese holidays
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this for my two school-age daughters who are half-Japanese. I read this book to them for bedtime sometimes. I get some education on Japanese holidays too, and I'm Japanese. Great book!

Summary of Japanese Celebrations: Cherry Blossoms, Lanterns and Stars!

The people of Japan love to celebrate! In fact, they love it so much they have a day of celebration, whether it's a change in season, a religious observance, or just a special moment in life, every month of the year. Brimming with ancient traditions, exotic decorations, and delicious, seasonal foods, Japanese Celebrations will take you on a month-by-month tour of some of Japan's best-loved festivals.
Beautifully illustrated and full of fascinating facts about Japanese holidays and celebrations, this 48-page picture book offers a vivid picture of some of Japan's most festive events including New Year's, Children's Day, Cherry Blossom Season, Harvest Moon Viewing, Christmas in Japan and many more.
With simple but informative text and illustrations that explain the significance of the dress, decoration, food, gifts and activities associated with these events, Japanese Celebrations promises to delight and educate young readers and parents alike.
