Understanding Holiday Traditions Little Known Facts by Linda Weaver Clarke

I really enjoyed reading the old and interesting traditions and beginnings of the various holidays we celebrate each year.  It's so fun to know and come to understand the events that led up to these becoming holidays and how each has a significant historical meaning.

I enjoyed reading of a holiday that as I grew up in Minnesota, was a holiday that was always celebrated there.  That was May Day.  I remember little baskets on my door step and giving some out as well.  Then when we moved to California, I was sad that there was no celebration of that particular day.  

I enjoyed the vintage cards and the mentions of how different countries celebrated these days as well. 
A nice way to share the meaning of holidays to family members and to learn of their true meanings.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author.  All thoughts are my own.
