Around the World in 80 Festivals, Hardback Book

Around the World in 80 Festivals Hardback

Illustrated by Lucy Banaji

Part of the Around the World in 80 series

Hardback

Description

When do you eat 'bread of the dead', or walk barefoot across red-hot coals?

When might you dress up as a demon in a hairy suit and huge horned headdress?

What are you celebrating if you climb an 18-metre-high tower made out of buns?

Includes a stunning central gatefold that opens out to reveal a calendar of all the festivals featured in the book.

This is a visual celebration of festivals from across the globe, from the more familiar to those you might never have heard of before.

Discover more about Junkanoo in the Bahamas, Juneteenth in the United States, Matariki in New Zealand and Poland's Great Dragon Parade.

As you journey around the world, explore celebrations of food and drink, nature, culture, religion and history, plus ways to mark the passing of the year.
