Description

FANTASTIC FESTIVITIES, CRAZY CELEBRATIONS and HOLY HOLIDAYS

From tomato-throwing parties to graveside picnics, fire-walking ceremonies, crying baby competitions and the biggest bathing festival on Earth - this book introduces you to some of the world's most incredible cultural and religious celebrations. Some festivals are outrageously fun and joyful, others are more serious.

All of them bring people together to mark big events in life. So join us in this riotous explosion of colour as we feast, sing, cry and celebrate the diversity of festivals and traditions this wonderful world of ours has to offer.
