For those of us in school libraries, recognizing religious and cultural holidays can be challenging. Maybe your school has rules against holiday displays, or maybe you just want to ensure that all students feel included no matter what their beliefs. To that end, it's helpful to think about the ways in which winter holidays evoke a certain spirit to be shared by everyone in your school.
Use NoveList to find books that reflect the holiday spirit, no matter what your students celebrate. December is chock full of holidays--use the printable flyer on the left as a way to highlight the essence of those holidays.
Happy holidays, y'all!
