The "Celebrations" series is an easy-reading edition of Wayland's "Festivals" series. The full colour illustrations remain the same, but the text has been simplified, and this book could be used simultaneously with the original volume in mixed ability groups. This book looks at the most important religious festivals in the Jewish year, explaining their historical background as well as their significance today to Jews all over the world. The important Passover, the colourful Feast of Lots and the solemn Day of Atonement are all included. It also describes how these festivals are linked to the ancient story of Moses and the Israelites. The simple text describes the special food, drink, prayers and rituals associated with Jewish festivals and gives recipes and instructions for things to eat and make.
