      Happy New Year! Trivia Challenge - Jonathan Ozanne

      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

      ––––––––

      The author is grateful for the encouragement he has received from his family and friends while writing this book.

      INTRODUCTION

      ––––––––

      New Year’s Day is a common holiday around the world and different cultures have different ways of celebrating the New Year.  This book is primarily about the American holiday known as New Year’s.  The format of the book is fairly simple.  It goes question, answer, question, answer, etc.  A bibliography is at the back of the book.  You will need to keep your own score of how many answers you got correct.

      This book can be used to learn about the New Year’s Day holiday and it can also be used as a friendly or competitive group game to see who knows the most about New Year’s Day.  I hope you have at least as much fun answering these questions as I had researching and writing them!

      Have a safe and Happy New Year!

      Jonathan
