Every single day is a holiday.  From National Bubble Bath Day on January 8th to Bacon Day on December 30th, every day offers something.  And, what better way to celebrate the wild, funny, and traditional days than with books? So, here are 365 read-alouds for wacky holidays (and the traditional ones too.)  Best of all, each month, I have a printable book list for you.
