Review Detail

Engaging diverse holiday anthology. There's a short tale for everyone!

Love these stories that include diverse holidays such as Dia de Los Muertos, Passover, Juneteenth, Eid, and others! They celebrate the culture, foods, family, and more!

Here's some of my favorites:

Honor the Dead to Honor the Living by Sonora Reyes shows a teen who wants to make an ofrenda for Dia de Los Muertos to remember lost family members who died when no one wants to discuss the tragedy way all of them died. But by remembering it also celebrates those who continue to live. A total must read!

Merry Chrismukkah, Loser by Katherine Locke. This is a fun enemies-to-friends story of two rivals who try to win a contest on which holiday is more appealing. Very cute!

Hill Country Heartbeat by Candace Buford. When a college student returns home to see how hard her family farm has fallen due to a recent flood, she looks for ways to help that will even surprise her.

There's so much more in this fun collection!

Festival holiday short stories that are sure to be endearing to all!
