the year's holidays and
celebrations, the authors have
used puppetry and creative
dramatics to host and help
celebrate those special redletter
days. The book focus is
on holidays celebrated in the
United States, mainly national
and some religious, with an
eye toward how all children
can enjoy them, regardless of
national origin or ethnic group.
New Year's and May Day can
help create a sense of the
passage of time over a
calendar year, as well as
awareness of seasonal
change. What better way to
find out about spring than from
Mr. Groundhog or the
Passover Seder. Such events
as Presidents Day and Martin
Luther Kings' Birthday can
serve as springboards for
learning about values, such as
honor and courage, as well as
historical events. Through
puppets, other cultures and
folk legends of other countries
