    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on the publication of books for holidays. During holidays such as Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year's, libraries are found to be filled with books with titles that help folks reflect on classic stories and transform them into new tales. Holiday books are used by teachers to bring back old memories and teach the students about other traditions and cultures and to remind them that children around the world are all the same for they all celebrate the same holidays. Publication of such books is said to be endless, as holidays are considered a popular time for book purchases and holiday traditions and they are often part of the school curriculum.
