BR 1-14 Celebrating New Year

                                               New Year is a big festival. P4

      I read ‘celebrating New Year’. I was able to learn a lot of things by reading this book. we Japanese celebrate New Year on 1 January and we do not have a sense of incongruity about it at all. This is because we think that New Year is the time to celebrate the coming of the New Year. However, I learned not all people celebrate New Year on 1 January. Moreover, I was able to learn the old days, too. For example, I was able to know the fact that a lot of people celebrated the New Year with the coming of spring in very old times or a lot of people celebrated the New Year in the autumn. As I read this book, I came to be interested in the New Year. Especially, I was interested in the history of New Year. Until I read this book, I did not know about New Year at all, so this book was very useful for me, so I want a lot of people to read this book. This book was very interesting, easy to read and easy to understand.
