Review Quotes
"A great read-aloud picture book for opening discussions of traditional holidays, more recently created ones, and ideas for new ones."—Booklist
“A family makes the most of every day of the year through big and small celebrations. The ambitious project is lovingly designed to stretch from Winnie’s fifth to sixth birthdays…The busy art, in a warm, bright color scheme, is effective, with a blend of vignettes and full-page images… (Winnie’s) community is a diverse one.”—Kirkus Reviews
