Ever considered when Halloween was first celebrated?
-
Ever wondered why we celebrate Halloween in the first place?
-
What about trick or treating — ever thought about why kids go door knocking on Halloween?
-
…And why do we ask our neighbors to give us candy?
If you’ve ever asked any of these questions, my collaboration with my son, Constantine — “October Thirty-One: 10/31″ — will satisfy your curiosity. It’s a story about the seasons, traditions, and the history of All Hallows’ Eve, aka Hallowe’en. … And that candy question? Well, that’s wrapped up in the history of souling and the gift of Soul Cakes. It’s all in the book, including a special recipe to make the medieval treat! Visit celebratetheholidates.com for more!
A portion of our book sales proceeds is donated to organizations that see to improve the lives of children diagnosed with Trisomy 21, aka Down syndrome.
