Summary:
This book shows lot of things about celebrating the new year. The pictures show us how different counties celebrate and sometimes not even on the first of January. The reader reads all about New York and why people gather there to do on new years eve. The colors are as exciting as the new year with lots of reads and brightly colors floats and skies. The picture complement the text as we learn about how people celebrate with football and family games. It closes by reminding us that we get to celebrate it every year.

Reaction:
This was written for a very young child so it was not anything I didn't know already but it was still fun.

Potential Problems:
None

Recommendations:
I would use this in class while teaching about celebrations. It's great to show how it is different for everyone all around the world.
