“Japan has a Children’s Day of its own, and it’s one of the special days in these rhymes. Then comes the fun part: deciding which celebration you’d most want to join.”
Diwali lamps, Matariki stars and fish streamers fluttering in the sky.
Let's Celebrate! Special Days Around the World is a rhyming picture book about special days from 13 countries, from Lunar New Year to Diwali.
On the Matariki and Diwali pages, a rhyming couplet comes with a short note explaining the day. Readers stand under the night sky with families in New Zealand for Matariki, then join a girl placing glowing lamps for Diwali in India. Notes and a calendar at the back add more.
What they'll discover
- How Kodomo no Hi, Nowruz, Inti Raymi and Día de Muertos are celebrated.

- How to say Diwali, with a pronunciation guide on the page: "deh-VAH-lee".
