Delightful, informative introduction to Carnival traditions.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Play Mas'! A Carnival ABC (Hardcover)
Play Mas'! A Carnival ABC is a delightful and informative introduction to the tradition of Carnival. Vibrant pictures by Ras Stone showcase Dirk McLean's evocative language capturing the spirit of this event, held all over the world at different times of the year. Carnival is rooted in the French tradition of the Masquerade (Mas'), but has been transformed by African, East Indian, and Spanish influences showcased is in such events as Mardi Gras in New Orleans and Caribana in Toronto. Play Mas'! A Carnival ABC introduces the rich language, traditions, food, costumes, music, and festival events in an alliterative text. To add to a young reader's enjoyment, there is a hidden letter embedded in each brightly color, boldly designed scene.
