A thoughtful main text reflects in general on commonalities among late fall/winter holidays: e.g., gathering with loved ones, decorating, sharing food—“When we honor traditions, / we celebrate our people’s long history…and the hopeful days to come.” Smaller type provides basic information about the seven celebrations shown in the lively illustrations: Diwali, winter solstice, Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, Bodhi Day, and Lunar New Year. The digital art’s emphasis on diversity reflects the overall message of embracing and learning about our differences.
