I LOVE this celebration of Christmas traditions around the world. I haven't tried any of the recipes in the back, but I love that I could if the mood struck. Cookies are set out for Santa on Christmas Eve in many countries around the world, described in this collection that includes recipes. A striking cover illustration shows five children of different ethnicities with Christmas cookies arrayed in front of them and Santa and his reindeer taking flight just below the title. The digitally composed illustrations are the sweet treat in this book, from a snow-speckled Santa facing the title page to the final spread with children in Hawaii setting out pineapple-macadamia bars for Santa under their tree decorated with shells. Vibrant, glowing illustrations show children of different ethnic groups along with cultural traditions and decorations. The Christmas-cookie traditions of 32 countries (or sometimes a city or a state) are each described in a short paragraph, including the type of cookie, local name for Santa, and fun, related Christmas customs that will interest children. For example, the double-page spread about Mexico includes children with a piñata and cut-paper decorations in the illustration. Thoughtfully designed front endpapers offer a map with all the locations marked as a continuous journey for Santa; the back endpapers repeat this map with the addition of illustrations of the cookies, coded to the locations by number. Recipes for nine different cookies are included, and an author’s note gives further information about Christmas celebrations and Santa traditions. A delightful introduction to a popular Christmas treat and traditions around the world. (Informational picture book. 4-8) -Kirkus Review This book looks at the cookie leaving for Santa tradition across the world. The illustrations are gorgeous, but the book is long. I wish there was a recipe for every cookie mentioned, and that they were in line with the location instead of at the back of the book. #Wintergames #teamreadnosereindeer +26 geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
