Shh—it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve. Everyone stops talking and watches the clock. When the hour strikes, bells ring out, noisy greetings fill the air, and people sing. A New Year is born. All over the world people celebrate this special occasion.
Aliki shows us in simple words and gay pictures how the New Year was welcomed years ago and the many colorful ways it is celebrated today, from Denmark to Madagascar.
But whatever the custom, whenever the New Year, certain things remain the same. We celebrate a new beginning and make a fresh start in the year ahead.
