 | Carnival by George Ancona
For weeks the people of the Brazilian town of Olinda have been sewing costumes, painting masks, and creating giant puppets -- preparing for carnaval. Like Mardi Gras in New Orleans, carnaval is a five-day festival of parades, dancing, and singing. But unlike Mardi Gras, Olinda`s carnaval still celebrates the traditions and folklore of the people and the shared cultures -- indigenous, European, and African -- that make up Brazil. As generations have done each year, the people of Olinda and their visitors give themselves over to the music, dance, and joy of carnaval. AUTHOR: George Ancona
