Sophie Fatus Books

If you love Christmas, or would like to know more about how its traditions are celebrated across the world, from Colombia to Ethiopia to Serbia, then this is a must-have book for you. It has something for all ages, and is particularly suitable for EYFS and KS1, with its accessible text and beautiful illustrations.

Traditions are shared with the reader from thirteen countries and my class was surprised by the differences and similarities to their own familiar celebrations, which led to insightful discussions. The countries selected each had an interesting fact and a child-friendly pronunciation guide to new words. This book is very appealing and I believe that all would learn something new about how some countries around the world celebrate Christmas.
