Walk around any famous city and layers of history start to emerge. In London, Roman walls stand shoulder to shoulder with modern architecture. In Rome, ancient treasures like the Colosseum stand shoulder to shoulder with buildings from the Renaissance. In New York, skyscrapers from the 1920s and 1930s have been upstaged by enormous glass towers.
In Cities in Layers, six famous world cities will be shown at different stages of their history. A clever die-cut element allows readers to really feel like they are peeling back time.
When do you eat 'bread of the dead', or walk barefoot across
red-hot coals? When might you dress up as a demon in a hairy suit
and huge horned headdress? What are you celebrating if you climb an
18-metre-high tower made out of buns? Includes a stunning central
gatefold that opens out to reveal a calendar of all the festivals
featured in the book. This is a visual celebration of festivals
from across the globe, from the more familiar to those you might
never have heard of before. Discover more about Junkanoo in the
Bahamas, Juneteenth in the United States, Matariki in New Zealand
and Poland's Great Dragon Parade. As you journey around the world,
explore celebrations of food and drink, nature, culture, religion
and history, plus ways to mark the passing of the year.
