Thousands of years ago, people celebrated special times. New plants and animals in the spring, the longest day of summer, good food from the trees and fields in the autumn these were all times to celebrate. Later, Christianity came, and old and new festivals came together as Easter, Christmas, and other celebrations.
Each season brings its own celebrations. Spring has eggs at Easter; in the summer there are outside festivals at the summer solstice, and barbecues for the Fourth of July; autumn has fires and fireworks; and winter has the wonderful traditions of Christmas food and presents. But there are new celebrations too Mothers Day, Remembrance Day, the special days of new countries, and the festivals that people bring with them when they move to different countries.
Here is a year of celebrations old and new, inside and outside in Britain, the USA, and other English-speaking countries. Learn about the traditions, read the stories you can even cook the pancakes if you want!
几千年前，人们庆祝特殊的时节。春季有新生的植物和动物，夏季里最长的白昼，秋季时树上的硕果和农田里的丰收，这些时节无一不值得庆祝。后来，随着基督教的出现，新老节日相互交融，产生了复活节、圣诞节及其他庆祝活动。
每个季节都有其特有的庆祝活动。春季有复活节彩蛋，夏季会举办夏至日户外庆典和庆祝7月4日美国独立日的户外烧烤活动，秋季会点篝火、放烟花，冬季有准备圣诞美食和圣诞礼物的美妙传统。不过也有一些新的庆祝活动 母亲节、阵亡将士纪念日、新成立国家的特殊日子，以及人们移居到不同国家时带去的节日。
这本书介绍了英国、美国以及其他英语国家一年当中的节日庆典。这些节目有传统的，也有新兴的；有在室内欢度的，也有在户外庆祝的。了解这些传统习俗，读一读它们的故事 如果你乐意，甚至可以做一做节日时吃的薄煎饼！
