This is an introduction to Christianity through one of its major festivals. An opening-spread world map shows how Christmas is celebrated around the world and includes sections on history, stories, customs, feasting and decorations. This book is one of a series which treats festivals as a cross-curricular subject as it can be used to teach Religious Education, History and Geography. It has a global approach showing how festivals are celebrated around the world. Illustrated interest boxes add bite-sized chunks of information and each title ends with an illustrated calendar showing other festivals celebrated within the region.
