Series Review
This series breaks down barriers by examining different cultural elements through the lens of shared experiences. Holidays around the world involve giving thanks, celebrating with family, and sharing meals. Oral histories, legends, and folklore exist in every culture to teach lessons, pass on values, and preserve memories. Traditions evoke the same sense of community though they may look very different. These books celebrate our differences and teach children to see the underlying similarities running through every culture. A helpful tool to introduce children to our many cultural differences in a celebratory manner.
