They built fires to keep warm and cook their food. They lit torches to drive away danger. To help them see at night, they learned to make candles and lanterns. Light was so important in their lives that they came to use it in worship and in celebrations.From a Brazilian New Year's celebration to the African-American holiday of Kwanzaa, "Celebrations of Light" circles the year and the globe. The text and paintings highlight twelve festivals, showing the diverse ways in which people around the world use light as a major part of their celebrations. In each of these holidays, light plays a significant role, marking and brightening special days.媒体推荐This picture book takes the reader on a candlelit tour of the world, describing 12 festivals and observances that use light as part of their celebrations. Each spread describes one holiday for each month of the year.
