Christmas in Italy
Author: Jack Manning
Rating: 5/5 Stars
Reviewer: Denise Z.
Summary: This First Facts
series explains how Christmas is celebrated in other countries. In this book,
we learn about Christmas traditions in Italy. The Italian language,
Christianity, and other Italian Christmas facts are presented throughout the
text. The Round Lake Library also has Christmas in Germany, Christmas in
Norway, and Christmas in France available in the collection.
Review: This was a very
interesting book to read and a wonderful way to have children learn about their
cultures and other cultures that are unique to their own. Beautiful pictures
and intriguing facts fill the book and are presented in an educated and fun
way. A child can find out how similar or different their holiday traditions are
at home from those in Italy. I enjoyed all the Italian vocabulary presented and
also the holiday suggestions at the end of the book. Buon Natale…or Good Christmas to you!
