"Researcher's New Book Explores Symbolism of Fourth of July and Other American Holidays" by Tom McLaughlin -- Rutgers-Camden News Now "Let the Ghoul Times Roll: Halloween Culturally Significant Despite Social-Distancing Norms, Says Researcher," by Tom McLaughlin -- Rutgers Today Not a positive review; no pull quote available. -- Choice "As a folklorist, it has long been my belief that we must look to the younger generations as well as the elder when studying tradition. Thankfully, Cindy Dell Clark provides us with a careful and important volume of research on American holidays as experienced by children. Clark examines children's holiday anxieties that we adults have forgotten or simply ignore. Her research includes the understudied Memorial Day and Chanukah, and focuses our attention on children who are marginalized by normative national celebrations such as diabetic children at Halloween and Jewish children at Christmas." -- Jack F Santino, editor of Spontaneous Shrines and the Public Memorialization of Death "Beautifully written, persistently theoretically insightful and methodologically sound and innovative, All Together Now is a gem. Cindy Dell Clark builds on and expands her earlier work on holidays from an interdisciplinary and intergenerational perspective. This engaging book shines through with scholarship capturing the production of celebratory communal events at the individual, family, community and cultural level.

A landmark study!" -- William A. Corsaro, author of The Sociology of Childhood 5th edition.
