SUMMARY: This book describes the different ways that people celebrate birthdays around the world. REVIEW: I gave this book three stars because while it is an informative book for very young children, I feel as though it leaves out a lot of detail. This book provides an extremely simplified version of how birthdays are celebrated throughout the world, and what people do to celebrate this holiday. Even though this book is intended for younger children, I feel as though it could still provide more details. For example, the book states that: "Macey has a birthday party in Australia. Everyone claps six times for her six years." While this is an interesting tradition, I feel as though the book could provide at least one other thing that people do in Australia for this special celebration. I enjoyed reading this book because I thought it was informative for a younger age. The pictures are real photographs, which makes the book more engaging for younger readers seeing an age group they can relate to. I think that children would enjoy reading about how kids all over the world celebrate their birthdays. I also like the question it posing to the reader at the end. It asks the reader to say or think about their birthday customs, which would be a good sharing activity in the classroom, especially if I have students from different backgrounds. The main message of this book is to share with kids the different types of birthday customs celebrated all over the world. I really enjoyed this book for several reasons. I really enjoyed that the illustrations were actual photographs of real children. If there was a picture of a child from Brazil, the photograph was a real Brazilian boy, which I thought was really cool how there were so many different races and ethnicities throughout the book. I also liked how the book did not necessarily have a plot, it just showed different customs that people around the world do to celebrate their birthdays. For example, in Canada, they put butter on a kids nose to signify good luck. In Brazil, they give however many years old the kid is turning pulls on the kids’ ear lobe. It was just very interesting to read about the different customs people do around the world on birthdays. I think the overall message of this book was to show readers that people celebrate birthdays differently all around the world. I really enjoyed learning about different customs and traditions that take place in other places in the world. I enjoyed this book very much. One reason why I enjoyed this book was because it had real pictures of diverse people. Children from many different backgrounds could look at this book and not only reflect on themselves, but they could also learn about the cultural birthday differences between them and their classmates. Another reason why I enjoyed this book is because of the use of a glossary in the back of the book. I felt that this is very useful because many young readers will come across words that could definitely expand their understanding of the cultures they are learning about. The big idea I got from this book was that even though everyone celebrates birthdays, we each celebrate them differently. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
