The entries might contain recipes for holiday foods, historical background, significance of the holidays, and the special ways in which these days are observed. The calendar entries, written by young people, are rich in local customs that perhaps cannot be found in books. Indexed by month, holiday, and country. (http://www.kidlink.org/KIDPROJ/MCC/)
