A vibrant collection of simple recipes cooked by families around the world for celebrations and festivals.

Join families from all corners of the globe as they share their much-loved recipes for special occasions and festivals. Whether they're for Ramadan or Passover, for a national day, a birthday or just a big family get-together, all the recipes are simple, heartfelt, and delicious.

The families, and the simple, step-by-step instructions, are illustrated in a bold, graphic-novel style. From Nigerian party rice to U.S. Halloween cookies, each recipe brings authentic international cuisines, traditions, and stories to your table. Also featuring fascinating facts about regional festive traditions and ingredients.

All the recipes are vegetarian, and instructions are also included to make them vegan, nut-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and gluten-free - or any combination of these.
